Today on our 2003 Honda Pilot we'll be test fitting the Yakima Forklift Roof Mounted
Bike Rack, part number Y02098. With a factory roof rack on our vehicle we'll begin our
test fit by placing the bike rack up onto the vehicle's load bars. Starting here
at the front, we'll go ahead and remove the skewer. We'll then loosen up the wingnut
and bring the front bracket around the underside of the front bar. We'll position the silver
T-bolt into the slot at the bottom portion of the bracket and tighten down our black
wingnut. Moving the rear we can then adjust the black wingnut as well to position the
rear bracket around the rear bar. Again we'll position the silver T-bolt into the slot and
tighten down the black wingnut to secure the rear part of the bike rack to the rear bar.
With everything all tightened down and secured, we're ready to load up our bike. Back
up at the front we'll slide the black cover over the black wingnut and reinstall
our skewer, making sure it stays loose so our forks can slide down onto it. Now moving
the rear, we'll go ahead and undo the strap. We'll place our bike up onto the
bike rack, sliding the forks down onto the skewer. We can adjust the sewer and clamp
it down, securing the back tire with the rear strap. With our bike all loaded up, that'll
complete today's test fit for the Yakima Forklift Roof Mounted Bike Rack, part number
Y02098, on our 2003 Honda Pilot.
