INSTRUCTIONS:
1. Begin by first removing your stock air cleaner assembly and backing plate via the instructions in your
service manual. The carburetor flange and threaded bosses into the cylinder heads should then be cleaned.
2. Remove the backing on the supplied gasket and apply to the back of the large black anodized backing
plate.
3. Before mounting the plate, insert a 1/4-28x2" bolt and lock washer into the top center hole of the back
plate. It is important you do this, as the bolt will not clear the throttle body after the plate is installed.
Mount the backing plate loosely to the cylinder heads after you stick the gasket to the back via the supplied
chrome stand offs and breather bolts. The stand offs have a lip that helps them seat flush in the backing
plate. Be sure to use thread locker when securing the 3/8-16" breather bolts. Tighten them lightly allowing
minimal play in the backing plate for ease with the next step.
4. Install the backing plate to the throttle body using the (3) 1/4-20x5/8" socket head bolts. Again, be sure to
use threadlocker so that no hardware will work its way loose during riding. Next cinch down the breather
bolts and cap them off with the (2) back plate tabs. The machined channel in the tab should face towards
you when installed (completing the groove in the back plate for the air filter to set in).
5. Install the remaining 1/4-28" bolt and lock washer, followed by the (2) aluminum filter spacers. Now,
install the filter over the back plate assembly followed by the front cover. Carefully locate the holes and get
the bolts started in the front cover. The bottom bolt is easy, but the top one may require you to loosen and
lift the front of the gas tank. Again, thread locker is very important to assure bolts do not vibrate loose.
Installation is complete. Be sure to clean and re-oil your air filter on a regular basis. Also, be sure to
re-torque bolts after riding to ensure air cleaner assembly remains secure.
