5. Install the supplied side plates on to the sissy bar with the four M8 X 16mm button head bolts. Make
sure the u-shaped grommets are facing the same direction as the sissy bar pad and the part numbers
are facing inward. See FIGURE 3. Snug the bolts but DO NOT TIGHTEN at this time.
6. Install the sissy bar onto the bike by first inserting the front portions of the side brackets on to the front
mounting bushings on the frame rails. Make sure the sissy bar is seated all the way onto the mounting
bushings. See FIGURE 4.
7. Then slowly rotate the sissy bar downward so the rear portions of the brackets slip over the rear
mounting bushings. See FIGURE 4.

15. Pull backward on both detachable latch knobs and then push downward on the backrest to allow the
backrest to sit completely on the rear mounting bushings. Then release the detachable latch knob to
fully engage the latch pin underneath the mounting kit bushing. See FIGURE 5.

mounting kit bushing. Failure to fully engage the detachable latch pin could cause the backrest to
come loose while riding. See FIGURE 5.
17. Pull backward on the top of the sissy bar and then tighten all four M8 X 16mm bolts. See FIGURE 5.
18. Before each ride, check to make sure the detachable latches are fully engaged underneath the

To clean your black accessory use a liquid based soap detergent, such as dishwashing soap applied with a soft cloth and
rinse with clean water. Note: Avoid abrasive cleaning methods such as granular or dry cleansers, simple green, Scotch-
Brite or steel wool pads. Abrasives may breach the coating and shorten life.
