Welcome. Although the year of your bike differs, here's an unbelievable thread you may not have seen. Text, pictures, and documentation are beyond anything ever compiled in a manual with very great insights and tricks for easy and proper assembly.

Grab some cold beverages and read it together on the widescreen  ;)

"Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of it's victim may be the most oppressive. It may be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated, but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience." - C.S. Lewis
