Saddlemen K06-11-0112 User's Manual & Installation Instructions

Congratulations on choosing a new Saddlemen® seat for your motorcycle! Your new
seat will give your bike an immediate improvement in comfort and style. All Saddle-
men seats are constructed with a heavy-duty plastic or fiberglass pan, with durable
rubber bumpers and plated brackets that often exceed the strength and durability of
the original seat's components.
Please read these instructions completely before starting installation. All "NOTE"
"CAUTION" and "WARNING" notations are serious safety issues and should be read
carefully. Possible injury to riders or damage to the motorcycle and/or accessory
may result if improperly installed.
These instructions contain important information for future reference and should be given to the customer.
Because of the variety of motorcycle configurations, other accessories, and the features and intended use of this Saddlemen seat, there
may be different mounting options. You are responsible for the proper installation of this seat on your motorcycle. Your attention to these
installation instructions, any additional specific instructions and recommendations will permit the safe and proper use of this seat. You must
mount this seat properly and securely before riding your motorcycle. If you lack the ability to safely and properly install this seat, seek out a
qualified motorcycle technician for assistance. During installation, you may need to support the motorcycle with a suitable stand or lift so it
will not tip over and injure you, or damage the vehicle. Using or mounting this seat improperly could result in a loss of control of the motor-
cycle which could result in damage to your motorcycle or other personal property, the property of third parties, and/or personal injury to
yourself or others, up to and including death.
PASSENGER GRAB STRAP: This accessory seat is provided without a passenger grab strap. Carrying a passenger without a
grab strap in place on your motorcycle may be hazardous for the passenger. Grab straps, rear mounted foot pegs, sissy bars,
passenger backrests and trunks aid in making a passenger more secure on the vehicle. Laws in some jurisdictions require
grab straps or other security devices when a passenger is transported. Do not transport a passenger if they are not secure.
Do not disable grab straps or other safety features provided on your motorcycle and obey all traffic laws while riding.
Saddlemen offers a complimentary grab strap for this seat, part no. 15327. Call (310) 638-1222 for more information.
Always ride responsibly and take precautions to be sure your passenger is secure and comfortable at all times.
BE SURE TO THOROUGHLY READ AND CLOSELY FOLLOW THE MOUNTING INSTRUCTIONS THAT ARE INCLUDED WITH THIS SEAT.
