SAFETY Accessory Selection and Installation Because VICTORY cannot test and make specific recommendations concerning every accessory or combination of accessories sold, the operator is responsible for determining that the motorcycle can be safely operated with any accessories or additional weight. Use the following guidelines when choosing and installing accessories: S Do not install accessories that impair the stability, handling or operation of the motorcycle. Before installing an accessory, be sure that it does not: - Reduce ground clearance when the motorcycle is either leaned or in a vertical position. - Limit suspension or steering travel or your ability to operate controls. - Displace you from your normal riding position. - Obscure lights or reflectors. S Bulky or large accessories can cause instability (due to the lifting or buffeting effects of wind) and loss of control. S Do not install electrical accessories that exceed the capacity of the motorcycle's electrical system. Never install higher wattage light bulbs than those supplied as original equipment. An electrical failure could result and cause hazardous loss of engine power or lights or damage to the electrical system. S If you want to add a windshield, backrest or luggage rack, choose one designed and approved by VICTORY specifically for your model. Follow the instructions for proper installation and use. An improperly designed or installed windshield, backrest or luggage rack can reduce stability, causing loss of control. 20

SAFETY
Accessory Selection and Installation
Because VICTORY cannot test and make specific recommendations concerning every accessory or combination of
accessories sold, the operator is responsible for determining that the motorcycle can be safely operated with any
accessories or additional weight. Use the following guidelines when choosing and installing accessories:
S
Do not install accessories that impair the stability, handling or operation of the motorcycle. Before installing an
accessory, be sure that it does not
:
- Reduce ground clearance when the motorcycle is either leaned or in a vertical position.
- Limit suspension or steering travel or your ability to operate controls.
- Displace you from your normal riding position.
- Obscure lights or reflectors.
S
Bulky or large accessories can cause instability (due to the lifting or buffeting effects of wind) and loss of control.
S
Do not install electrical accessories that exceed the capacity of the motorcycle’s electrical system. Never install
higher wattage light bulbs than those supplied as original equipment. An electrical failure could result and cause
hazardous loss of engine power or lights or damage to the electrical system.
S
If you want to add a windshield, backrest or luggage rack, choose one designed and approved by VICTORY spe-
cifically for your model. Follow the instructions for proper installation and use. An improperly designed or
installed windshield, backrest or luggage rack can reduce stability, causing loss of control.
