this should have been posted prior to the previous post on the riser install. i didnt have the camera on the first attempt. this is basically how to remove the bars and stock clamps so you can install the over racing risers-to either the stock setup or the otec setup). the 1st post shows the stock setup. once i get the RIGHT spacers-i'll detail the otec procedure as well. then hopefully one of the site moderators can group the 3 posts into one large how to on the install. lets get started
1st remove the headlight crown by removing the two bolts on either side. (you may want to partially remove the headlight-i'll be changinge mine out over winter so i wasnt worried about any possible scratches. the whole procedure can be done with the headlight in place as long as you are patient and take your time!)
next use a knife and carefully remove the plastic plugs in the tops of the stock riser clamp
remove the screws and clamp. this will allow you to remove the bars. be sure to place something over your fauk cover and rest the bar assembly on the tank
now remove the speedo bracket. mines a custom mount for the digital speedo but it mounts in the same way the stock setup does.
remove the bolts holding the bottom bar clamp from underneath the triples. i have the otec setup so things look a little different but, its the same idea. once these bolts are removed your ready to do the install on a stock setup. on the otec triples-once the bolts are out-pull the stock clamp out of the triples
this is what the triples look like with the clamp and spacers removed
now unscrew the spacers from the stock bottom bar clamp mount. the threads on the risers are different from the ones on the stock bottom mount which is why i needed the new ones made
this is where the project currently sits as i await the spacers. i may have to put it back together though as its 55 degrees here at 11am and go for a ride. once they get here i'll post the final part of the install with pics of the risers on the bike.
