General Recommendations:
- We recommend having the installation carried out in a workshop with appropriately trained personnel.
- Please observe applicable road vehicle (construction and use) regulations as well as EC/ECE Directives and applicable laws in your country. If parts are fitted which require inspection and/or approval after fitting, take your vehicle to a testing station immediately and have the vehicle papers updated.
- Check and if necessary tighten all bolted connections after 50 km.
- Always disconnect the battery when working on the electrics!
- We recommend cutting protective film to size and applying it to impact areas that are likely to be chipped by stones.
- Work on the brake system and suspension should always be carried out in a workshop with appropriately trained personnel.
- If other original accessories or aftermarket accessories are used, ensure clearance, fitment and do not come into contact with other parts!
- Apply conventional lubricant to stainless steel bolts prior to assembly.

Important Considerations:
- The order of assembly steps must be followed.
- Touratech accepts no liability for incorrectly fitted parts and resulting material damage or personal injury!
- Please take into account that fitting panniers, crash bars, foot peg lowering kits (rider and pillion), Kickstand enlargement plate, front spoilers and engine guards may restrict the bike's lean angle!
- If modifications are made to the fairing, stem, handlebar, fairing parts, etc., ensure that electrical wiring, brake lines, accelerator and clutch cables are refitted correctly. Check clearance, both sides with full steering lock.
