RS Hitch Installation Instructions:
1. To take the weight off the back end of the motorcycle, use a floor jack to elevate the rear wheel off the ground.
2. On either side of the axle, you will find two (2) plastic covers. Remove them.
3. Then, detach the cotter pin on the right side.
4. Next, unbolt and completely remove the axle.
5. Locate the supplied side plates.
6. Then, find the spacers on the sides of the axle and replace them with the "left" and "right" plates respectively.
7. Now, move the axle back into place, bolt it, and secure it with the cotter pin.
8. Align the holes of the hitch to the holes of the side plates.
9. Next, insert the supplied bolts from the inside of the hitch through the aligned holes.
10. Screw the nuts on and tighten until snug, then attach the plastic nut covers.
Note: It is easier if the parking brake is not on.
