BOX ARRIVES- REMAIN CALM! |
|
Your Trail Bike has just arrived! Take a moment to thank
and congratulate yourself on the best purchase decision
you've made of a lifetime. Try to remain calm!
You feel the excitement build at this moment. Use common
scissors to cut the bands and remove the box to check
for any signs of damage. PLEASE
NOTE: In the event there is damage to
the box, crate, or bike write suspected damage on delivery
paperwork BEFORE SIGNING!!! |
Unbolt Crate - Untie Front
Wheel |
|
|
Next use
a socket & ratchet to quickly remove the steel crate
frame bolts. Use your hands or pliers to untwist
the holding wire ties from the crate frame to free the
front tire etc. |
Remove Frame and Plastic
Cover |
|
| After removing
all of the crate bolts from the bottom and untwisting/removing
the wire ties carefully lift off the steel frame and remove
the plastic cover. Note how compact the design is
to help save you shipping $'s keep the center of gravity
low, and protect the motorcycle. ECO-TIP:
Save your plastic cover for storage later. Use cardboard
box for packing materials like a large trash bin. |
Remove Front Hub |
|
| Untie the front
hub and remove the cardboard accessory box. Inspect
accessory box contents. |
|
Remove Speedo Gear |
|
|
|
Remove the
front speedometer gear from the front hub. Set
this aside for front wheel installation. |
Disclaimer:
Please Remember
that it is the customers responsibility to check ALL
bolts, nuts and screws for looseness before & after riding.
An excellent solution for assembly is Loctite brand
thread locker. Loctite is a liquid that is applied to
bolt threads to prevent them from vibrating loose. Loctite
may be purchased at any hardware or automotive store. We
recommend Loctite #242 for all general hardware and Loctite
#243 for areas that encounter grease, oil and other lubricants.
If you own a motorcycle you are going to want to own
some Loctite! The instructions below are meant to help
guide you and are no substitution for reading the manual and
practicing safe mechanical habits. Please acknowledge
that Retrobikes.com is not responsible for misassembly, misrepresentation,
overlooked details and shall be held harmless and free from
any liability for any advice and instruction provided.
