Tools required for installation

The installation required a 18mm socket or tube spanner to complete the fitment on my Kawasaki ZRX1200R. Important Note:

"Do NOT overtighten the nut"
Left hand view showing hollow front axle
This is the left hand side of the front wheel, which will be the nut side of the Axle Armour™ for tightening.
Close up of hollow axle left hand side.
Close up of area of fitment, note hollow axle which allows the Axle Armour™ bolt to be passed through from the right hand side of the bike.

Here we are passing the Axle Armour™ right knob and bolt through the hollow axle, make sure that the pin on the rod end is located (aligns) in the small hole (keyway) in the right knob.

The only thing left here to do is add the left hand knob, nylon locking nut and tighten with the 18mm socket.

Remember NOT to overtighten nut!

The fitment is now complete and as you can see does not really distract from the aesthetics of the ZRX1200R, left hand side view.
