When you get 3 longer bolts to fit it to the rocker cover, DO NOT tighten the 3 M6 bolts to pull the damper into place - you'll strip the head threads. Use a hammer and piece of wood to tap the damper down into position, then tighten the bolts.

Allow the engine to warm up before fitting and adjusting the rose joints. Make sure the bolt that holds the top rose joint to the damper is TIGHT - mine fell out, and I'm not the only person on here to have that happen.
