FITTING INSTRUCTIONS
PLEASE NOTE THAT BEFORE BEGINNING, YOU WILL NEED A SUITABLE JACK TO SUPPORT
THE ENGINE WHEN REMOVING OEM ENGINE BOLTS. IF YOU ARE NOT COMFORTABLE, HAVE
FITTED BY A QUALIFIED TECHNICIAN. READ ALL STEPS BEFORE PROCEEDING.
•Begin by removing the upper fuel tank cover panel following the steps below:
oRemove 4 x 3mm Allen head bolts from the top panel as arrowed in picture 1.
oOnce bolts are removed gently pry the panel upwards from the centre of both sides, this
will release 2 x rubber grommets holding the panel in place. Remove and store in a safe
place.
•Remove the LHS and RHS inner nose panels, for each side:
oRemove the 3mm allen bolt from the rear of the panel as shown in picture 2.
oRemove the 3mm allen bolt from the front of the panel as shown in picture 3.
oTo remove the inner panels, you should push forwards to disengage 3 plastic hooks
linking the fairing to the inner panel.
oNext lift the panel to release the hooks and lift the back upwards to disengage the panel.
oAs an added precaution use a cloth between the panel and fairing panels as shown in
picture 4 when removing. Carefully manipulate each panel outwards from the top and
remove completely.
•Starting with the LHS, remove the lower belly panels from the bike. For each side:
oRemove the 3 x 3mm allen bolts from the underside of the belly pan as shown in
picture 5.
oRemove the forward 4mm allen bolt from the underside of the belly pan as shown in
picture 6.
oRemove the 4mm allen bolt from the rear of the belly panel found near the foot controls
as shown in picture 7.
oWhile supporting the belly fairing, remove the 3 x 3mm allen bolts connecting to the
upper fairing as shown in picture 8.
oFor the LHS, a breather tube will need to be removed, which can simply be gently pulled
from the securing pipe on the belly pan as shown in picture 9.
oWhen removing LHS, you will need to make sure the side stand is in the downward
position as shown in picture 10 to thread the panel over the stand.
•To access the required engine mount bolts, both fairing panels should be removed, for each
side:

oRemove the 2 x 3mm allen bolts in the upper forward section of the main fairing panel
as shown in picture 11.
oRemove the central 4mm allen bolt, in the underside of the nose fairing as shown in
picture 12.
oRemove the bolt from the radiator surround at the front of the bike in picture 13.
•At this point the fairing is free to be removed and should be supported at all times
during the next steps.
oGently pry the upper rearward section of the fairing away from the bike, this will release
3 x Velcro pads arrowed in picture 14. Also carefully release the horizontal mount
connected to the fuel tank. Note the vertical pin keeping the fairing in place towards the
front upper section of the panel before proceeding.
oCarefully release the 2 x remaining rubber grommets from the bike, pry the lower
central mount away from the bike and lift the panel slightly to disengage the vertical pin
grommet. Carefully lower the panel down and towards the rear of the bike, noting 2 x
curved tabs at the front of the panel to be guided out of position.
THE NEXT STEPS INVOLVE REMOVAL OF ENGINE BOLTS. PLEASE ENSURE THAT THE ENGINE
IS SUPPORTED FROM BELOW USING A SUITABLE STAND UNDER THE SUMP. DO NOT REMOVE
MORE THAN ONE ENGINE BOLT AT ANY TIME DURING INSTALLATION. ONLY PROCEED IF
YOU ARE CONFIDENT AND HAVE THE REQUIRED TOOLS FOR REINSTALLATION.
•With the fairing panels now removed on both sides, the engine bolts are now accessible.
Starting with the LHS, using a 14mm socket, remove the engine bolt shown in picture 15.
•Ensure that the engine and frame are still correctly aligned before replacing this engine bolt
with a replacement engine bolt extension (item 4) using a 19mm socket as shown in picture
16. Torque this bolt to 90Nm as shown in picture 17.
•Now repeat the engine bolt replacement for the opposing RHS engine bolt.
•Referring to the LHS assembly diagram 1, affix the LHS protector mount bracket (item 2):
oPlace 3 x foam pads (item 7) in the positions shown on the inside face of the M604 LHS
bracket assembly (item 2) as shown in picture 18.
oOffer up the assembly to the frame, the locating tabs should surround the frame and the
mount hole should sit against the extended engine bolt hole.
oFix the bracket in place using the shorter M10 x 1.25 Hex bolt (item 9) and one M10
washer (item 12). Before torqueing the hex bolt, rotate the bracket so the forward face
is back against the frame upright as shown in picture 19. This will help keep both sides
even when fitting the opposing side.
oTorque the bracket securing bolt to 40Nm.
oAdd the M10 nut cap (item 15) to finish the bracket installation.
•Referring to the RHS assembly diagram 2, affix the RHS protector mount bracket (item 3):
oPlace 3 x foam pads (item 7) in the positions shown on the inside face of the M605 RHS
bracket assembly (item 3) as shown in picture 18.
oThread the remaining M10 bolt (item 10) though the second M10 washer (item 12)
followed by the mount bracket and S1114 spacer (item 5) with the recessed section
facing away from the bracket as shown in picture 20.
oOffer up the assembly to the frame, the locating tabs should surround the frame and the
mount hole should sit against the extended engine bolt hole. The cable clip shown in
picture 21 attached to the frame will need to be relocated by pushing the spring clip off
the frame and sliding further up to clear the mount bracket.
oFix the assembly in place by threading the M10 bolt into the engine mount extension,
ensuring the head of the engine bolt extension fits into the recess of the spacer.
oBefore torqueing the hex bolt, rotate the bracket so the forward face is against the frame
upright to match the opposing side before tightening ensure that the foam pad fills the
gap between the frame and bracket and frame as shown in picture 22 and that there is
no direct contact between the bracket and frame.
