Title: Fairing trouble
Post by: Carterc on May 20, 2011, 02:21:34 PM
i cant seem to get my front upper fairing off...i feel stupid, but i take off all the bolts my Clymers manual tells me to, but it still feels rock solid after a good tug. I don't get it. Any word of advice from someone with more experience? (no one is excluded from that category!)

Don't forget the headlight bolts. These do double duty holding the headlight as well as the fairing. Oh ya.. hold the headlight while removing or else breakage :bad: happens...

Cheers...Jake

Unbolt the fairing mount and take ir off as an assembly.
