    Sorry to say

    I have asked the same question and the answer I got was there are not any instructions. I was told that the manufacturer does not supply any and they do not either.

    So I just winged it! I put the straps front to rear of the gas tank and the front of the straps were mounted to the bottom of the front cross member where I drilled holes for the bolts.

    The L bolts I put in the rear and drilled holes at the top of the rear cross member when it is all said and done you don't see the L bolts they are actually hidden. looks pretty nice. I also had to shorten the straps a bit because they were rather long and I wanted them to mount on the bottom of the front cross member so I shortened them but it was pretty easy to do.

    Good Luck!!!
