for you to determine which model of rider you have.
Therefore you will know which set of instructions in the
following pages to follow.
To determine which model of rider you have, you will
need to locate the rider’s model plate, located under the
seat. Simply flip the seat up and locate the model plate,
which will consist of an 11 digit/letter model number
and a serial number. For ease in this installation and
for future use, copy your rider’s model number & serial
number below now:
