WARNING

Remember : Motorcycling can be a dangerous activity. Installation of any accessory can increase your risk if it is not installed properly. You are responsible for installing this accessory so it will not contact any portion of the drive train, suspension or steering, or it will in any way interfere with the operation of your motorcycle.
To avoid injury, install it while the engine is cold.

INSTALLATION

This S-RT Fairing kit allows you to reuse your stock 5.75” headlight.
If you need a new headlight or are looking for an upgrade, we recommend NAMZ Custom Cycle (www.namzcustomcycleproducts.com) 5.75” headlight options LLC-LH- 5B, LLC-DHL-5TS or LLC-LHC-5B.

INSTALLATION NOTES
Your S-RT Fairing came pre-assembled in the box. You’ll need to disassemble some of it for installation on your motorcycle. Take note of any hardware you remove from the fairing, as it will be reused for installation.

  • Remove the Headlight Bezel Trim (G), and the Headlight Lens (H), from the Fairing.
  • Remove the hardware holding on the Headlight Trim Ring (T) and the Mounting Ring (R). You should now be able to remove the Fairing Main Body (A) from the Main Bracket Assembly (K).
    Once the Fairing Main Body is separated, you can begin to install the Main Bracket Assembly onto your motorcycle.

MOUNT FAIRING BRACKET TO MOTORCYCLE FRAME

  1. Completely remove your Sportster’s headlight, visor, mounting bracket, etc. and disassemble the headlight. This fairing kit includes a new mounting bracket that uses your existing headlight lamp.

  2. Remove the large bolt that holds the front of your gas tank to the frame.

  3. See Fig. A. From the front of the motorcycle, slide the Main Bracket Assembly (K) towards the frame, between the fork tubes. Ensure that no hoses, wires or cables are pinched.

  4. Using the new bolt (X), washer (Q) and nut (Y), install the Main Bracket, as well as the gas tank, to the bike’s frame, with a fairing bracket on the outside. Leave all hardware loose for now.

  5. See Fig. A. Using the included socket head screw (L) and washer (O), insert spacer (P) between the fairing Main Bracket lower arm and a slotted hole in the motorcycle’s frame gusset. Secure the screw (L) using washer (M) and locknut (N), on the backside of the frame gusset.
    MOUNT THE FAIRING BODY ONTO THE MAIN BRACKET

  6. See Fig. B. Push four bolts (W) with washers (O) through the Fairing Main Body (A) and through the Main Bracket Assembly (which you’ve already bolted to the motorcycle frame). Using four locknuts (N) with washers (O) on the backside, attach the Fairing to the Main Bracket Assembly. Fairing holes are slotted to allow for minor adjustments to perfectly level your fairing. INSTALL HEADLIGHT

  7. See Fig. C and Fig. D. Install your 5.75” headlight (not included) using three screws (U), and attach the Headlight Trim Ring (T) to the Mounting Ring
    (R) with the headlight lamp sandwiched between the two rings. The headlight should have a notch that lines up with the Mounting Ring (R).

  8. The headlight sub-assembly mounts to the Main Bracket Assembly (K) using three screws (S), and three washers (O) going through the Mounting Ring. Slide a Compression Spring (V) over each screw, then screw it through the Fairing Body and into the Main Bracket ring, with a washer (O) and locknut (N) behind it. These three screws will provide your headlight angle adjustment.

  9. Plug in your headlight wires.

  10. Install the Inner Fairing (J) using six screws (B).

  11. Install the Headlight Lens (H) and Headlight Bezel Trim (G) using four socket head screws (C).

  12. Install the windshield, by first inserting the five rubber/brass well nuts (F) into the five corresponding holes in the Main Fairing Body. Using five 10/32” button head screws (D) and plastic washers (E), attach the windshield to theairing body.

  13. Re-read these instructions, tightening all fasteners along the way.

FINAL CHECKLIST

  • Adjust the three screws (S) to set the proper headlight angle.
  • Check all clearances for handlebars, mirrors, etc. at both left and right steering stops as well as your forks’ full compression.

WARNING

  • You must verify that this accessory and/or any of its parts will not touch, or interfere with other components while the suspension and steering move through their entire range of motion. Make sure that neither the fairing nor its mounting hardware interfere with any other parts of the motorcycle in the course of operation, as they might be damaged from contact with the accessory.
  • The configuration of this accessory fairing with certain motorcycles may require relocation and/or adjustment of certain components on these vehicles, including handlebars, mirrors, and lights. Check to be sure that all lights, turn signals, mirrors and safety reflectors are in place once the fairing is installed. If the fairing installation blocks or interferes with the turn signals, you will need to move the turn signals to another mounting point that permits their proper electrical function and visibility. If the fairing or mounting hardware blocks any side reflector, place new reflectors on the exterior sides of the fairing. Reflectors with self-adhesive backing are available from motorcycle or automobile supply stores. It is your responsibility to make sure that the installation of this accessory does not create an unsafe or illegal condition.
  • Improperly installed or loose hardware can allow the fairing to move. Before riding, visually check the clearance between the fairing and any moving parts that could impair the normal operation of the motorcycle.

CAUTION

It is your responsibility to make sure this accessory installation does not create an unsafe or illegal situation. Remember that this is a custom accessory. You must check the installation to determine if it will be safe for you to operate the motorcycle safely and legally. You must also ensure that the installation does not damage your vehicle in any way.

After 50 miles (80 kilometres), recheck all of the fairing mounting hardware and the fairing to make sure they are still tight and secure. Loose hardware can cause the fairing to interfere with the vehicle’s operation and can cause an unsafe riding condition. After that, check fastener tightness during each regular maintenance check.
