BIG AIR KIT (BAK) - Yamaha Road Star (99-07)
5. Remove your fuel tank according to factory service manual procedures. Remove the stock air cleaner from the right side of your
bike. Remove the metal clamp from the stock air box and re-install it on the rubber boot of the new BAK, with the screw facing the
rear.
6. Take the assembled BAK and place it into position between the cylinders. Install the crankcase vent hose on the male hose fitting on
the rear of the BAK backing plate. Route this hose so it is inconspicuous from view, ensuring it will not get pinched or blocked in any
way.
7. Align the boot from the BAK with the throttle body being sure it and the clamp slide on evenly. Then using the M6x1x30mm
Socket Cap Screw and 1 M6 washer with the 5/8x7/16 spacer, secure the right arm of the BAK mount arm to the engine at the upper
right mount point near the top of the front push rod tube, leaving it loose at this time.
8. Align the left arm of the BAK mount with the upper left mount point at the top of the rear push rod tube. Use the 1" Black Spacer
and the M6x1x45mm Socket Cap Screw and a M6 washer to attach the left side motor mount. Once all parts are in line, check the
rubber boot for a proper seal and tighten the left and right mounts securely. Be sure to use Blue Locktite®.
9. Tighten the hose clamp to the throttle body being sure the clamp sits evenly on the outer mouth of the body and do not over tighten
the clamp or you will tear the tube. This clamp does not support the BAK it is there purely to seal against air leakage
NOTE: The carburetor vent hose originally routed to a bracket on the rear of the stock airbox should be shortened slightly and
allowed to vent to the atmosphere. Route this hose in such a manner as to make it inconspicuous from view, ensuring that it will not
get pinched or blocked in any way.
10. Be sure the carb boot is seated smoothly around the carb mouth then slide the carb boot clamp into position over the end of the
carb mouth and tighten it firmly.
IMPORTANT: Check all linkage for interference, check all hoses for kinks, check all bolts and hardware for tightness and then check
throttle action for smooth operation. If all is correct you are now ready to start your bike and perform tuning.
TUNING: Perform final idle mixture screw tuning adjustments per instructions supplied before you begin your initial ride.
