General Information

To Install the Panniers

Align the rear mounting to the flanged sleeve
on the rear mudguard. Slide the pannier
secure and
rearwards to fully engage on to it.
Fit the front mounting to its slot on the frame
of the motorcycle.
Align the top of the pannier to its mounting
studs and fit the washers and fixings. Tighten
the fixings to 15 Nm.
Always ensure that the front and rear
mountings of the panniers are correctly
fitted and the fixings are secure. A loose or
detached pannier could cause loss of
motorcycle control and an accident.
Always ensure the pannier lids are securely
closed on both latches. An open pannier
lid may cause the motorcycle to become
unstable leading to loss of motorcycle
control and an accident.
The maximum safe load for each pannier
is 7.0 kg (15.4 lbs). Never exceed this
loading limit as this may cause the
motorcycle to become unstable leading to
loss of motorcycle control and an accident.
