INSTALLATION
1. See Figure 4-115. Hold baseplate above mounting posi-
tion.
2. Insert IAT sensor into grommet on baseplate from under-
side.
NOTE
A small amount of soapy water applied to the inside diameter
of grommet will make breather hose installation easier.
NOTE
In next step, be sure breather hoses do not extend past
Intake air temperature sensor tower. If hoses extend past
tower, damage to sensor may occur.
3. Insert longer breather hose into right baseplate grommet
from underside.
4. Attach shorter breather hose onto crankcase breather
located on top of rear cylinder.
5. Carefully lower baseplate into mounting position. Ensure
rubber sealing ring on velocity stack completely engages
baseplate. Baseplate should be sandwiched between
upper and lower rubber sealing rings.
6. Install baseplate to frame with four fasteners and wash-
ers (5). Tighten fasteners to 84-120 in-lbs (9.5-13.6 Nm).
7. Position air cleaner filter on baseplate.
8. Install air cleaner to baseplate and latch six latches to
secure.
9. If interactive exhaust actuator (XB12R) was removed,
install at this time and tighten fasteners to 36-40 in-lbs
(4-4.5 Nm). See 1.17 INTERACTIVE EXHAUST CABLE.
10. Route vent hose through groove on air cleaner to vent
valve.
11. Install intake cover assembly. See
