Stage 11
Stage 11 Contents: Fan Casing, Fan Motor Support, Gear Cable Bracket, Filter Box Bracket, Fixing Screws, Flanged Screws and Dummy Case Screws.
Fit the fan motor support using the two screws provided. It fits on the inside of the engine/transmission case, holding the motor in place. Take care that the motor lead isn't trapped as it comes out of the recess.
Using a flat surface to support the weight of the swing arm and components attached to it, line up the two halves of the engine/transmission casing together. There are several locating pins that need to align with their corresponding holes and it is important to make sure that all the wiring comes out of the slot shown in Step 9 of the instructions. Work your way around the casing, making sure all the pins are located in their respective holes. Press firmly together so that the two halves fit flush with each other.
The screws that join the casing fit through the two mounting brackets. Note, the brackets have different shapes as shown in steps 15 and 16 of the instructions. Start with the bracket that fits next to the circular fan housing. Take the side that has a single hole and line it up with the hole in the casing. The bracket is fixed by using one of the two dummy casing screws (provided with this stage), which have a long thread to hold the casing together. It is easiest to fit the screw through the bracket first and then insert the screw into the hole.
Tightening is made easier with a pair of long-nosed pliers, if available. Once tight, the angle the free arm of the bracket should be as shown in step 22 of the instructions.
Fit the second bracket with the remaining dummy screw into the hole next to the kickstart casing. Take care when tightening the dummy screw as there is very little clearance between it and the nearby casing. Angle the bracket as shown in step 30 of the instructions.
Lining up the three holes in the fan casing with those in the engine/transmission casing, fix in place with the screws provided. Note that 3 screws go in the fan casing and one goes inside the fan housing, close to the fan motor. Fit loosely, as you may need to move the casing to get all the screws to line up. Once all four are in place. tighten them down firmly.
This stage is now complete.

Fit the inlet manifold to the cylinder matching up with the two holes and long tab, then push the part into place. Take the two small screws supplied in this stage and fit them into the holes in the flange of the manifold.
Now take the fan cooling cowl and line it up over the cylinder, easing it gently into place. The curved edge of the cowl fits over the edge of the fan cover, once fitted press it firmly into place.
Holding the cowl in place, take the washer provided and fit it into the recess around the hole in the top of the cowl, which lines up with a hole in thcylinder head. Take the bolt provided and fit it through the washer and cowl into the hole in the cylinder head, then using the box spanner/key, tighten the bolt fully making sure the bolt fits all the way into the cylinder head otherwise the cowl will be loose.
Turn the assembly over, then take the short retaining strap and fit the rectangular hole at one end over the hook near the edge of the cowl, next to the clutch cover. Take the spring retaining clip and fit the notched end of the clip over the hook near the edge of the cowl next to the fan cover. Hold the retaining strap in place so you can spring the other end of the clip over the hook in the end of the strap. This stage is now complete.

Stage 22
Stage 22 Contents: Headlight Glass, Headlight Rim, Headlight Reflector and Fixing Screws.
Fit the headlight lens into the rim. With the curved side facing outwards, match up the notches with the locating ribs and mounting posts inside the rim. Press the lens into the frame, then take the reflector and match up the notches with the locating ribs in the same way you did with the lens.
Test fit the reflector, noting how the three holes in the reflector line up with the mounting posts on the rim.
It can be tricky to insert the very small fixing screws in one go. I would suggest you separate the parts remembering how they fit together, while you start to fit the three screws provided.
Start driving the three screws in to the holes of the reflector, you only need a couple of turns so the end of the screw doesn’t protrude through the plastic. Refit the reflector to the lens and rim as you did before and keeping the reflector pressed firmly into the rim, screw all three screws firmly into the mounting posts.Ensure the reflector sits flush all the way round.
This stage is now complete.

Take the two smallest silver screws and use them to fix the switch to the clamp, ensuring that the switch is firmly fixed.
Take the handlebar assembly and lower handlebar cover from stage 1.
With the brake lever pointing forwards, fit the large hole in the handlebar over the matching post inside the handlebar cover. Lead the brake cable through the two guides just beyond the end of the handlebar, press the end of the black outer sheath into the large channel that forms a stop in the further of the two guides. Then take the free end of the brake cable down through the oval hole in the handlebar cover.
Take the two largest black screws provided and secure the handlebar to the cover, making sure the handlebar is unable to move. Take the brake cable retainer, with the flat side facing down fit hole in the round end over the circular lug next to the cable stop. Now use the remaining screw to secure the end of the brake cable in place.
This stage is now complete.
