NOTE: We strongly recommend the application of Loctite®, or a similar material, on the threads of all bolts.
10. Brake and clutch lines:
Grasp the brake and clutch lines at a point near the upper triple clamp and pull gently in order to make
certain that all existing length is available.
Verify that these lines travel directly from the handlebar downward into the space between the triple
clamps and the headlight. These lines should be completely separate from the throttle and electric lines.
If the hydraulic line or the clutch line is not routed independently, remove the brake master
cylinder/mirror assembly, or the clutch perch/mirror assembly. This is accomplished by removing half of
the clamp holding either of these to the handlebar. Thread the assembly through other lines until the
hydraulic line or clutch line is independent of any other line.
The throttle lines should run together with the electric cable. Grasp the throttle lines just in front of the
triple clamp and pull gently to retrieve all available cable length.
The throttle must be tested before the handlebar is tightened on each riser: With the motor off, turn the
front wheel to its furthest point in one direction. Twist and release the throttle several times. Verify that
the throttle snaps back to the idle position when it is released. Turn the wheel as far as it will go in the
opposite direction and repeat the test. If the throttle sticks, the routing of the throttle lines must be
checked and correct throttle operation must again be verified. Securely tighten the bolts on each
handlebar clamp, applying a thread locking material as needed.
CAUTION! The handlebar cannot be pulled back through an unlimited range due to the length of the
OEM cables. Care must be taken to avoid placing excessive strain on the control lines, causing the throttle
to malfunction. The position of the handlebar must provide adequate relief for the control lines.
