MORG WASHER

thingiverse

This washer allows you to change the 22+ honda grom garnish washers into a quick release system using 1.25" OD quick latches that require a 3/4" mounting hole with 6mm studs. It is designed to accommodate 2 Flanged, M2 x 0.40 mm Thread Size, 4 mm Installed Length heat set inserts per washer and 18-8 Stainless Steel Thread-Locking Socket Head Screw, M2 x 0.4 Mm Thread, 8 Mm Long and 316 Stainless Steel Washer For M2 Screw Size, 2.2 Mm Id, 5 Mm Od to retain the washers in the shrouds. You will need to stop 1 print early or use the template so you can drill the second hole in your shrouds to attach these. If you don't want to attach them or modify your shrouds you can skip the hardware and simply drill and tap the stays and clips. Just print 12 washers for use with the latches. Insert the nut into the washer and screw in the latch from the underside. Use your palms to press the nut into position. Unscrew the latch and install in the washer using your palm to grip the surface of the latch while applying pressure as you spin the washer. You will need to drill and tap mounting holes in L & R rear side cover stays and all u nut clips using a 5.2mm drill bit and 6mm-1.00 tap. You can drill a slightly larger hole and skip the tap, however keep the clips in place to center your stud. (Recommend removing the clips and inner fairings to get this accomplished) The latch studs need to be cut to the proper length (make sure you leave a nut threaded on the stud to chase the threads after cutting) and threaded into the stays and clips with one nut on the back and one on the front to lock them in position. Adjust the threaded stud to the proper stick out to engage the latches through your shrouds. Test fit shrouds and adjust stick out on studs as needed. Apply blue loctite on the studs and latch nut after you get the fitment where you want it and tighten it all down. Also make sure the inner latch assembly with the 2 tiny holes is tight! (A lot of these latches come with this part loose and this will cause a failure) I recommend a very small amount of blue loctite on this as well, but careful not to get it inside the latch mechanics. I will be uploading a tool design to service these quick release latches soon. I recommend the upgraded zinc latches but the aluminum ones should hold fine.
