| Fitting instructions for side panels |
|
|
|
|
Remove, lights and interior sound deadening but leave wiring and clips intact |
Mark a line approx 1 1/2" - 2" from edge of side panel, with tape or marker pen |
Cut on line with jig saw or air saw with metal cutting blade,(remember to wear a pair of safety goggles!) |
|
|
|
|
Seperate the two halves, you no longer require the outer skin, all you need is the 2" band with the fittings still intact |
Do a trial run to famiarise yourself with
how it fits together |
Apply a good thick bead of mastic adhesive such as Tigerseal or Sikaflex |
|
|
|
|
When the adhesive has been applied clamp the original metal band to the fibreglass and allow to cure overnight |
It is adviseable to squirt some extra adhesive on the jointing edge to ensure a good strong bond |
Your side panel is now ready for refinishing and painting |
|
Horn- cover |
To fit the cover to the front of the scooter we normaly bond 2 or 4 small blocks of wood to the rear of the moulding to line up with the holes already in the legshields, then screw through from the rear. You can also put a countersunk screw behind where the Piaggio badge fits at the top. Then stick the badge over. |
|
Mud- guard |
The front mudguard simply bolts on inthe normal way, you will see the indentations for the bolt holes and the brake pipe/cable, obviously the front forks have to be removed, it is important that you take a little time ensuring the wheel is centralised before bolting back onto the the scooter. |
