NOTE:
Due to the great variety of seats available,
to
determine the
correct mount height needed, measure the thickness of the front
of the passenger seat. Measure from the top of the rear fender to
the top of the passenger seat as in PIC 1. Over 6 inches need the
tall mounts, 6 inches and under will use the short mounts.
STEP 2
Locate the left and right side (sitting on bike) mounting brackets. PIC 2
STEP 3
Remove the saddlebags to expose the rear fender struts.
STEP 4
Starting with the right side, remove the 2 OEM fender strut fasteners in
the locations shown in PIC 3.

STEP 6
Slide one of the long spacers on to the front cap screw and one of the
small spacers on the rear cap screw and install on the right side of the
motorcycle in the location the OEM fasteners were removed in STEP 4.
PIC 5 Torque the hardware to 14 ft-lbs.
STEP 7
Repeat Steps 4, 5 and 6 for the left side.

Test fit the Driver/Passenger Backrest between the fixed mounts. The
Backrest should slide easily between the fixed mounts. If it slides in
easily, proceed to Step 10. If the Backrest seems to bind or you have to
spread the Fixed Mounts apart to insert the Backrest, proceed to the next
Step.
STEP 9
Remove the Button Head Cap Screws securing each Fixed Mount to the
bike and insert one or two of the shims, depending on the amount of
room needed, between the Fixed Mount and the spacer, on each Button
Screw.

screws through one of the supplied shoulder
