Heli Bars are designed to safely increase your riding comfort; however it is imperative that these instructions be followed to ensure correct installation. Failure to follow these instructions could result in improper installation and create a dangerous control situation. If you have any questions about installation call Heli Modified, Inc. at 18008594642. This installation requires the use of a torque wrench that covers a torque range of 8 ft. lbs. Before stock bars can be removed, it is necessary to rotate the front brake line clockwise at the master cylinders. Loosen the banjo bolt at the front brake master cylinder just enough so the fitting can be rotated. Position the banjo fitting so the hydraulic line rests against the right fork tube. Cover the fairing with a rag as some hydraulic fluid may leak. Retighten the banjo bolt.
NOTE: If this modification is not performed prior to removing the stock bars, it will not be possible to mount the master cylinders to the Heli Bars.
