Thanks to John Wells for providing the following photos and information regarding how he mounted Triumph Tiger hand guards on his Quota.

Close-up of left guard sculpted for relief around mirror stalk, extra hole drilled inboard of lever pivot bolt to stabilize mount, bolt goes through unused factory hole. Close sculpting of mirror mount cutout helps with stability also. Slight trimming of rubber cable boots is necessary also. Becomes obvious as you progress.

Note nylon spacer (hardware store sourced) and washer between fast idle lever and guard. Don't lose the small steel ball that acts as a check on the lever. Use nylock nuts on the longer pivot bolt as you need to be able to adjust tension on the fast idle lever. Mounting Triumph Tiger hand guards on a Moto Guzzi Quota 1100 ES.

Right guard just needs minor sculpting of master cylinder cutout. Close fit means no wobble. Also create a cutout for the brake switch wires. Bolt longer than stock (from the parts bin). Mounting Triumph Tiger hand guards on a Moto Guzzi Quota 1100 ES.
