07-08 CBR600RR Installation Instructions for:
Frame Sliders
Bar Ends
Swingarm Spools
WARNING: The installation of all parts in these installation instructions must be performed by a qualified motorcycle mechanic who is using the correct tools and who understands the correct use of all tools required to complete the installation.
Frame Sliders
These instructions explain the installation of OES frame sliders on the 07-08 Honda CBR600RR. The
instructions are based on the use of our special alignment tool to be used to mark the lower fairings in
preparation for cutting the frame slider half hole. The tool is not automatically included with the frame sliders
set, since different methods are used to cut the fairings by different installers.
1. Start on either side of the bike (work on one side at a time) by removing the lower side fairing.
2. Locate the forward engine mount screw. The mount is directly forward of the stator cover on the left side,
and directly forward of the clutch/timing cover on the right side.
3. Remove the factory engine mount screw (17mm socket and ratchet)
4. Install the alignment tool in place of the engine mount screw. Thread it in most of the way.
5. Install the fairing. Make sure the fairing is installed fully- installing the fairing improperly will result in a
misaligned half hole in the fairing.
6. Adjust the tool outward until it makes contact with the inside of the fairing.
7. Push inward on the fairing, directly over the point of the tool. This will make a mark on the inside of the
fairing, indicating where the fairing needs to be cut.
8. Remove the fairing
9. At the mark, drill a 1/8" or smaller pilot hole through the fairing, drilling from the inside out.
10. Use a hole saw that has a pilot drill in the center. The saw should be slightly larger (no more than 1/8")
than the frame slider diameter. When cutting, you won't be cutting a full circle- it will be a half circle since you'll
be cutting at the edge of the fairing.
11. Remove the alignment tool.
WARNING: THE WASHER MUST BE ON THE SCREW BEFORE INSTALLING THE SLIDERS
12. Install the frame slider (both sides are the same) using a 10mm Allen socket and a torque wrench.
13. Tighten to the factory torque specification (same as factory screw).
14. Re-install the lower side fairing.
Repeat the steps on the opposite side.
Special Note:
* If you have a crash and damage one side, you can purchase just the side you need by contacting us or by
purchasing directly from our website.
Bar Ends
1. Remove the existing bar ends.
The inside of the bar should have a notched insert that matches the shape of the base of the bar end; our bar ends are made to fit a factory setup and will not work with a generic insert or any type of aftermarket race clip-on bars.
2. Apply a small amount of blue or red thread locker (Loctite) to the supplied screws.
3. Install the bar end making sure that the bar end notch is correctly mated to the bar insert and add light torque with a 5mm Allen wrench. If the bar end appears crooked it may indicate that the notch on the bar end and bar insert are not aligned correctly.
4. Confirm that the bar grip on the throttle side does not touch the bar end and that the bar end does not inhibit smooth throttle twisting action in any way.
We will be more than happy to provide customer support if needed- please contact us.
Swingarm Spools
Add a small amount of blue thread locker (Loctite) to the supplied screws and tighten with a light amount of torque using a 6mm Allen wrench.
