Flexx-acrebis Prorally2 Handguard Installation

[DiablosZ400]

Many people have asked me how I mannaged to install a set of Acrebis Pro Rally2 handgaurds to the Fasstco Flexx bars.....ive goten tired of writing this Install up numerous times so ive decided to put it out here

All Parts used including Handguard



What you will need

5-1/2" long bolt (x4)
Washer (x4)
Alluminum Spacer (x2)
Tape (any kind)




To attach the gaurds to the bar end (where the bolt it would go on the inside of the bar) I used a concaved head bolt long enought to fit a nice amount inthrough the bar end, roughly about 5-1/2" (Im not shure the correct name of the bolt but I will find out and edit this post) but I had to take a wizz wheel and put a slit in the head of the bolt to make it accomindate a flathead screwdriver....




I then slid the bolt through the handgard (at the end by grip area) and took a locking nut and screwed it all the way untill it touched the other side of the plastic (to support and hold the bolt as if it was just a shaft) I then sliped the rest of the bolt (taped up to stop vibration from metal to metal contact) through the end of the bar....



What I did was I took 2 bolts that were 5-1/2" long to fit though the pivot point where the hollow alluminum piece is, aswell as a locking nut(x2) and a washer(x2) for each side of the bar
After that I used the other long bolt roughly about 5-1/2" long (still on same side handgard) through the plastic where it would usualy have that clamp to the bars..I then put the bolt through that area of the Handgaurd then added the 2 washers along with one alluminum spacer (one spacer on each end of the alluminum spacer) so one touched the plastic while the other spacer touched the alluminum of the hallowed pivot area, that bolt went through the pivot point and then i used a locking nut to finish it off and hold it all into place. (make shure that the bolt faces away from the seat). Once thats finsihed you will need to cut off the axcess thread thats left over so no one will get hurt!



You will have to apply a little pressure to get the pivot bolt to fit through freely and with that pressure applied it keeps the bolt at the end of the bar to act like a lock shaft to hold the Handgaurd into place.
