Scotts Damper Install on a Honda F4i

[Cakes206]

Here is a complete step by step on how to install a Scotts Damper on a Honda F4i. This can also be used for most other bikes, not all bikes are the same but it's pretty strait forward. Between the step by step explaination and pics, you can't mess this up. If you do, then you might want to reconsider bikes all together

Big thanks to our buddy Carl for putting this together.

Step #1 Remove the stock plastic cap for the triple clamp bolt. You will not need this any more.


Step #2 Remove the 30mm Stock triple clamp bolt.


Step #3 Put on new triple clamp bolt provided torque to 76 ft/lbs


Step #4 Place damper collar over the bolt. Make sure the notches match up.(cirlced in yellow)


Step #5 Apply blue Lock-tite(provided) to fastener screws.


Step #6 Screw in fatserners screws to the 5 & 7 o'clock positions first.




Step #7 Finish putting in the rest of the fasterner screws tightening them equally.

Step #8 Remove stock gas tank bolts.

This part is designed to float do not try to use any kind of lock-tite or anything.

Finished picture..Make sure after your next couple of
rides you check and make sure everything is tight.



And remember folks...its called a damper...not a dampener or dampner...that is all...ride safe.
