Suzuki GSX-R 1000 Owners Manual: Accessory installation guideline
- Install aerodynamic affecting
accessories, such as a fairing,
windshield, backrests, saddlebags,
and travel trunks, as low
as possible, as close to the
motorcycle and as near the
center of gravity as is feasible.
Check that the mounting brackets and other attachment hardware are rigidly mounted.
- Inspect for proper ground
clearance and bank angle.
Inspect that the accessory does not interfere with the operation of the suspension, steering or other control operations.
- Accessories fitted to the handlebars or the front fork area can create serious stability problems. This extra weight will cause the motorcycle to be less responsive to your steering control. The weight may also cause oscillations in the front end and lead to instability problems. Accessories added to the handlebars or front fork of the machine should be as light as possible and kept to a minimum.
- Select an accessory which does not limit the freedom of rider movement.
- Select an electric accessory which does not exceed motorcycle's electrical system capacity. Severe overloads may damage the wiring harness or create hazardous situations.
- Do not pull a trailer or sidecar.
This motorcycle is not designed to pull a trailer or sidecar.
