Hey I’m Jevon with Pickard USA. Today I’m gonna show you how to install our 2014 and up 23” bolt on bagger trees. Install a retaining click onto the neck shaft making sure it seats inside the groove. Using a press push the neck stem through the top of the triple tree. You’ll know when to stop when the retaining clip mates to the surface of the tree. Install the neck stem lock and the two turn stop bolts being sure to use a little bit of blue loctite. Remove your stock handlebar bushing and put them onto the upper tree. Use a stock bushing washer and the button head bolt supplied in the kit to install your risers. Be sure to use a little bit of blue loctite. Mount the ignition switch to top tree utilizing your stock hardware and little bit of blue loctite. Pack your bearings with grease and slide the rubber seal over the neck shaft and then your neck barring. Put a little bit of grease on the race and drop in the upper tree. Pack the other barring and slide it onto the neck shaft along with the dust shield. Install the lower tree and install it with the neck stem cap. Using the supplied bolts install the fork can to the lower tree with a little bit of blue loctite. Drain the stock fluid and fill it with 30 weight fork oil to stock specifications. You’ll notice there’s a bevel on the top of the stock fork legs. Were gonna use this as a reference mark to lower it to the back of the triple tree to set the height of the front end. Install your handle bars and tighten the top riser clamps. Mount the front wheel, slide the axle through and tighten it. Mount both your brake calipers and use your stock hardware. To properly set the front end were gonna first check for vertical slop by pulling up and down on the front axle. Tighten the front end until all the vertical slop is gone. To check the fall away of the front end, push the wheel all the way over to one side and let go. The wheel should come back to the center on its own. If you push the wheel all the way over and let go and it doesn’t move it’s too tight. You need to loosen the front end. When you let go of the front end and it goes too far past the center you need to tighten the front end. Once you’ve got your front end set tighten the lower pinch clamp with the four supplied bolts using blue loctite. Lock in the lower neck stem cap with the two 5/16th bolts to set it in place. Remove your plastic brake line holder from your stock lower tree and mount it to the new tree, be sure to use included bolts. With the holder in place snap in your brake line and you’re done. If you have any questions give us a call. Be sure to ask about our 23, 26 and 30 inch front end packages.
