Handlebar Installation with Speaker and Control Head Mounted Separately

It may be necessary to use the smaller control head bracket (part number 07-80127N02) and mount
the speaker and microphone hang-up clip in another location on the motorcycle.
Before installing the control head using the bracket described above, the control-head end of the
control-head cable should be temporarily fastened to the control head, and the control head fastened
to its bracket. Motorola-supplied spacers and the mic-cable bracket are required to mount the control
head to the handlebar. This mic-cable bracket has holes to mount the microphone-cable connector.
Follow these procedures when mounting the smaller control-head bracket:
1. Determine the location at which the control head is to be mounted. Take care to choose a
location that is not only mechanically convenient, but is located for ease of operation.
2. Securely mount the Motorola-supplied spacers, mic-cable bracket, and small control-head
bracket to the handlebars.
3. Mount the 9-pin D-connector end of the motorcycle control-head cable to the mic-cable
bracket, using two machine screws, flat washers, and nuts. (Cable routing directions appear
later in this section.)
4. Attach the control-head end of the cable to the control head and tighten the locking screws on
the connector.
5. Mount the control head to the small control-head bracket, at the proper viewing angle, using
two wing screws. Tighten firmly. This concludes the control-head installation.
