Fit the clamp onto the handlebar without tightening it, attach the bar at the end and to the clamp connector, position it horizontally when viewed from the side, and tighten the end bolt. Then tighten the clamp in the specified order: the bar bolt on the connector, the bolt securing the connector between the two clamp halves, and the bolt closing the clamp around the tube. The nut fits into its recess and does not need to be held with a wrench. Specified torques: \u003cstrong\u003e10 Nm for the M6 bolts and 28 Nm for the M8 bolts\u003c\/strong\u003e, using medium-strength threadlocker and checking after the first 50 km. Leave approximately 3 mm of clearance between the throttle grip and the handguard.
