Default worst directions ever!

I just installed docking hardware for a sissy bar on my 08 SG %$@*&$!!
They need to give better directions when I was done I had every pieace on backwards! I found a link on the forums with easy step by step directions and did the docking in less then 20 min.

Here is the link http://www.moatsfamily.com/Docking_Station_Install.pdf

A few years back I was putting new brake pads on the front of my Dyna, carefully following the printed direction sheet for front wheel installation. It led me to open the caliper, leaking brake fluid, rather than remove the pins. Now the kicker: I called HDs headquarters number on my own dime (not an 800 number) to report the bad instructions and was told "Oh we already know about that." Not even a thank you for calling.

The pads were recently manufactured, but the instruction sheets had been printed a couple of years earlier. Apparently HD was determined to use up all the faulty instruction sheets rather than toss them and reprint correct ones. The customer be damned.
