I don't have a copy of the instructions, but I do have that fairing mounted on one of my R69S's.
Best I can do is show you some photos, that will help and may get you though this.
The first photo is the front left, lower end brace attachment. You can see the big U shaped bar coming out from under the gas tank. It it mounted to the lower frame tube.
The second photo shows the upper right attachment, bolted to the fairing, and the lower brace clamped to it, running down to the attachment clamp on the right down tube of the frame. The left side bolts into the fairing the same way.
Third photo is the lower rear brace, that has the bend in it, running from the fairing to the left lower transmission bolt.
The 4th is the straight lower rear brace from the transmission bolt to the fairing.
I hope you have a buddy to help you do this, is is more than one guy can fit by himself!

Jim,
Send me a PM with your email address. I have a scanned set of original mounting instructions I can send you. I tried attaching the .PDF file here but got an error.
Admin, thinking these instructions might be nice to add to the library? How does one do that? Also, is there a way to attach PDF files to posts here?

I just uploaded a smallish PDF to a post...didn't seem to have a problem. Maybe yours is too big?
As for adding your information to the club's library, follow the link at the bottom of this page:

Can't tell you why I got the upload error to attach it to a post. Instructions sent to the OP. Will add to the library when I have a chance. Appreciate the link.

I just tried to upload a huge PDF file and got a message that said it was too large. If you didn't get any messages, then I'm not sure. What was the size of the file you tried to upload? I could find something I have around the same size and see what happens to me.
