Hey all,
I am installing a Forcewinder on my 99 M2. If I use the spacer (pictured below) the included bolts are not long enough, if I do not use the spacer, they will work. What effect does this spacer have? Just curious what difference there will be with vs. without. Thanks, Frank.

I installed mine with no spacer. It's been working pretty well for a few years now.

Here's a couple of examples pictured on a recent thread:

Ran my Forcewinder with out the spacer also, the shop put it on for me as a favor since they had a little accident with my bike in the shop. Anyway, they put a lot of those things on various bikes so I assumed they knew what they doing...

Guys,
Thanks you! I bolted it up without the spacer. I take the fact the supplied bolts will not work with the spacer as a sign you are supposed to run without it. Considering what you pay for this little piece of metal, you would think they could include that information. Frank.
