1. Remove logo emblem. Use caution when removing emblem from the bike so as to not over heat or
scratch paint or emblem. Heat emblem with heat gun and pry off bike using small hook or machinist
scribes. Use a rag between hooks and bike to prevent scratching and chipping of paint. (We are not
responsible for damage to the logo emblem or motorcycle while removing, cleaning or reinstalling.)
2. After logo emblem is removed, completely clean where the emblem was located on the bike and the
back of logo emblem with a cleaning product such as Goo Gone and wipe with alcohol swab provided.
NOTE: The following component removal procedures can be found in Chapter 2 of the GL1800 2012
Honda® Motorcycle Service or an online manual from such services that provide them.
3. Release tabs attaching the left/right mirror boots to the front fairing and roll back to expose front turn
signal/running light wiring.
4. Remove left/right faring trim, left fairing pocket and right switch panel (Figures 1, 2, 3).
5. Push wires from chrome logo trim into the hole where the logo was located (Figure 4) and up to meet
the wires leading to the front turn signals. Attach the black wire to any appropriate ground on the bike.
6. Connect logo trim wires to the bike wiring system as indicated:
