I purchased my P650 with the 2.5ci, got it out the door and sold it on ebay then purchased a 3.0ci on ebay as well. Well the dealer mounted the 2.5ci's motor end on the left side so I put my 3.0ci in the same direction. It has all the labels upside down but is ok.
My friend has purchased a 3.0ci for his p650. I am going to help him with the install. I am wondering if anyone has mounted their 3.0ci with the motor end on the throttle side?
I had to turn the motor so the posts would not hit the front bumper. I would like to avoid that in putting it on the other side but need to know if there is enough wire. That's with u-bolting the solenoid on a frame tube under the battery.

 

Never Mind,
The best way to mount the 3.0ci is with the battery connections on the left side. With both the 3.0ci's & p650's mounting holes being off center it makes for a more centered install. If mounted in the other direction the connection side is flush with the fender well skirt opening while the clutch/ free spool ****, is recessed in to make for an un-convenient access to it.
NOTE: If using a Roller Fairlead be sure to put 2 washers between the winch base and the mounting plate or the winch housing will be against the frame. This is easy to go un-noticed if you upgrade to the 3.0. These instructions only come in the Kawasaki promo winch kit.
