FITTING INSTRUCTIONS FOR CP0123BKBL & CP0123SIBL CRASH PROTECTORS
SUZUKI SV1000 (WITH/WITHOUT SUZUKI GENUINE LOWER FAIRING)
Please note that the way the kit is packed does not necessarily represent the way of mounting to the bike
Please note that in cases where kits are packed with rubber washers holding the components onto the bolt – the rubber
washers should be thrown away!
•
If Suzuki lower fairing is fitted, loosen it on both sides and allow it to sit on floor under bike
•
Undo main engine bar (middle one of 3 bolts on frame), using a socket on each side at same time
•
Take R&G replacement stainless steel engine bar and use it to push out the original mild steel main engine
bar (if the bar is difficult to remove, use a soft hammer to help knock it through)
Offside (right hand side as you sit on the bike)
•
Undo rear engine bolt (bolt nearest the front seat)
•
Take R&G aluminium block with the two longest bosses and slide over the engine bar
•
Take longest 10mm cap head bolt (120mm excluding head) & slide one 10mm washer up to head
•
Fit bolt through block and into rear engine mount and tighten
Nearside
•
Repeat offside process, except using the next longest 10mm cap head bolt (100mm exc. head)
•
Take two 12mm washers and fit one to each end of engine bar
•
Fit the two 12mm nyloc nuts to each end and tighten, using a socket at each end
•
Replace lower fairing
•
Take one of last 2 M10 washers & slide up behind head of one of 2 hex bolts (110mm exc. head)
•
Pass bolt through one of the protectors and then fix the assembly to the R&G block on one side of the bike
(NOTE see next point, in bold type, regarding positioning of the aluminium spacers)
•
If NO lower fairing is fitted, slide one of the two ali spacers up after the washer under head of bolt. If lower
fairing IS fitted, leave this spacer off the bolt and fit BETWEEN the crash protector and the ali block (this
increases protrusion to clear the fairing panel)
•
Tighten with a 17mm long-reach socket. Tighten bolt until you feel some compression from inside the
protector. Turn a little more so that you feel the compression increase slightly. Then apply a quarter turn.
Do not overtighten as damage can occur to the bike. Do not exceed 40nm of torque. Be careful not to strip
threads! Repeat for other side
Due to the risk of cross-threading of bolts etc; we always recommend that our products be fitted by one of our
official dealers or a qualified mechanic.
