Installation Steps

Step 1: Rear Light Installation

Secure the rear light to the support structure using the provided M3x08 screws and grower washers.

Step 2: License Plate Support

Attach the license plate holder to the support. Apply grease to the M6 screws as indicated. Ensure the positioning pin is not removed.

Step 3: Positioning Pin

The positioning pin must always be inserted. Inserting this pin ensures the license plate holder complies with European norms.

Step 4: Geometric Visibility

Ensure the license plate is mounted according to the geometric visibility angles (30 degrees) as specified in the diagram to comply with regulations.

Step 5: Indicator Installation

Install the turn signal brackets. The mounting procedure is valid for both sides of the motorcycle. Use the original nuts and screws to secure the indicators.

Step 6-7: Wiring and Rear Closure

Insert the wirings into the support, taking care not to pinch them. Attach the front part of the cover first, then secure it with the included screws, washers, and nuts.

Step 8-9: Electrical Connections

Connect the rear light wires (Yellow, Black, Red) to the supplied wiring harness. For turn signals, connect the Rizoma wiring to the main harness. Consult the specific manual for your turn signals to choose the correct connection schema.

Step 10: Reflector Adjustment

Adjust the distance between the reflector and the rear wheel to avoid contact during the maximum stroke of the rear suspension. The reflector must be positioned as close as possible to the lower part of the license plate and must be perpendicular to the ground axis.
