Preparation
Remove original handguards and bar end weights if fitted.
Notes:
The OEM hand guard bracket mounted under the mirror will need to be removed,
which will leave a gap that can be filled using our spacer #8.
Removing this bracket will reveal wiring on the clutch side. For aesthetic,
the wiring can be removed from its holding clip and secured beside the master
cylinder.

CAUTION:
Installation of the handguard is safety-relevant work and can be complicated.
We recommend the installation be performed by a motorcycle service technician.
Rideworx accepts no liability for damages caused by improper mounting. All
screws, bolts and nuts, including all replacement hardware provided by
Rideworx, should be tightened to the torque specified in the table. After the
first 50km of riding check all screws, bolts and nuts are tightened to the
correct torque. We recommend a medium strength liquid thread lock product on
all fasteners.
WARNING:
It is important there is a working clearance (approx 3mm) between the throttle
grip end and the handguard to ensure a free closing throttle. Check operation
of all handlebar controls, specifically the throttle, front brake, kill switch
and clutch to ensure they are operating correctly and are in accordance with
the OEM specifications. Do not ride the motorcycle if any controls are not
operating correctly. Check periodically that all bolts are tight. Please note
that all Rideworx test fitment are done on stock motorcycles with factory
standard handle bar, windscreen, etc. and in there original positions.

designed to prevent injury or death while riding or in an accident or crash.
