Accessory installation guidelines
• Install aerodynamic-affecting accesso-
ries, such as a fairing, windshield, back-
rests, saddlebags, and travel trunks, as
low as possible, and as close to the
motorcycle and as near the center of
gravity as is feasible. Check that the
mounting brackets and other attach-
ment hardware are rigidly mounted.
• Inspect for proper ground clearance and
bank angle. Inspect that the accessory
does not interfere with the operation of
the suspension, steering or other control
operations.
• Accessories fitted to the handlebars or
the front fork area can create serious
stability problems. This extra weight will
cause the motorcycle to be less respon-
sive to your steering control. The weight
may also cause oscillations in the front
end and lead to instability problems.
Accessories added to the handlebars or
front fork of the machine should be as
light as possible and kept to a minimum.
• Do not pull a trailer or sidecar. This
motorcycle is not designed to pull a
trailer or sidecar.
• Some accessories may make it difficult
to achieve the correct riding position, or
cause usability to deteriorate. Check that
you can attain the correct riding position.
• Select only electrical accessories which
do not exceed the motorcycle’s electrical
system capacity. Severe overloads may
damage the wiring harness or create
hazardous situations. Use genuine
Suzuki accessories.
