3.3. Koraci instalacije

1. Priprema: Park your Suzuki DL1000 VStrom 2014 on a firm, level surface. Ensure the engine is cool to the touch. It is recommended to ride the bike briefly to warm up the engine bolts, as factory thread-locking compound can make them difficult to remove when cold. Allow to cool before proceeding.
2. Identifikujte tačke montaže: Locate the designated mounting points on your motorcycle's frame and engine block. These typically involve existing engine mount bolts or frame attachment points.
3. Remove Existing Fasteners: Carefully remove any existing bolts from the identified mounting points. Keep track of all removed hardware. For long through-bolts, it may require two people: one to hold one side while the other loosens the nut.
4. Position Engine Guards: Carefully position the left and right engine guards onto their respective sides of the motorcycle. Align the mounting holes on the guards with the motorcycle's frame and engine points.
5. Početno pričvršćivanje: Insert the provided GIVI mounting hardware (bolts, washers, spacers) through the engine guards and into the motorcycle's mounting points. Hand-tighten all bolts initially to ensure proper alignment and fitment. Do not fully tighten any bolts at this stage.
6. Poravnaj i prilagodi: Once all bolts are in place and hand-tight, gently adjust the position of the engine guards to ensure they are level and do not interfere with any motorcycle components (e.g., radiator, exhaust).
7. Završno zatezanje: Systematically tighten all mounting bolts. Refer to your Suzuki DL1000 VStrom service manual for the correct torque specifications for the engine and frame bolts. Apply a medium-strength thread-locking compound to the bolt threads if not already present. For bolts in tight spaces, an open-end wrench on a bolt head may be easier than an Allen key.
8. Konačna provjera: After tightening all fasteners, double-check that all bolts are secure and that the engine guards are firmly mounted. Ensure there is no play or movement.

• Riding Awareness: While engine guards offer protection, they are not a substitute for safe riding practices. Always ride within your limits and obey traffic laws.
• Nakon incidenta: In the event of a fall or impact, immediately inspect the engine guards and surrounding motorcycle components for any damage. Even minor impacts can compromise the structural integrity of the guards.
