starter while working on electrical components.

are completely understood before performing any installation
steps. Contact S&S with any questions you may have if any steps

operation of motorcycle with a S&S part on it.
● Consult an appropriate service manual for your motorcycle
for correct disassembly and reassembly procedures for any parts
that need to be removed to facilitate installation.
● Use good judgement when performing installation and
operating motorcycle. Good judgement begins with a clear
head. Don't let alcohol, drugs or fatigue impair your
judgement. Start installation when you are fresh.

installation.
● For optimum performance and safety and to minimize
potential damage to carb or other components, use all mounting
hardware that is provided and follow all installation instructions.
