  1. Pick mine up tomorrow, looking forward to getting the bike, not looking forward to an 80mile ride in the pouring rain!!!

  2. congrats. Have you found the screws on the black plastic behind the front wheel?
    The left fairing slides off to the left, there are hooks where your knees touch the fairing.
     
  3. Found two black plastic screws behind the wheel yes. Don't want to brake anything on my first day as owner....
     
  4. heres the right side, left is the same. Look out for the plastic rivet on the black plastic behind the front wheel.
     
  5. You don't need to remove the fairing to get at the battery. Look down the left hand inside of it, and pull up the black panel marked 'fuse'
    I wired my optimate onto the battery in 15mins without removing fairing
     
  6. With a bit of help though perhaps :)
     
  7. yeah but he needs to see underneath the clothes :Snaphappy:

  8. Thank you guys.
    Did manage to get at the battery even though I were unable to remove the fairing. So much to learn:pensive:
     
  9. There's one behind it if you look from the back to the front of the bike, a plastic clip under the nose and another screw a little further down from there facing out from the radiator cowl bit. [emoji4] You also have to remove the black plastic part on top to be able to continue.

    After that it slides to the front of the bike if I remember rightly.
     
  10. Ah, the black plastic below the plastic cover for the ignition key? Will take a look tomorrow.
     
  11. That's the one!

  12. Sorry to hijack the post again, but how the blimmin heck and I supposed to fit this lower radiator guard when the lip on the lower part of the guard won't go past the lower radiator fixing point
    I've tried a small amount of force, but doesn't want to go in !

  13. Scrub that - more brute force worked !
     
  14. Did you just get the lower cover then ?
     
  15. I have the upper too, but having just removed all the skin from my knuckles after using reverse brute force to remove it and dragging my hand up the upper radiator, i'm going to need to clean the blood up before fitting that one :(
    At least my blood matches the colour of my bike
    Lower's now fitted though

  16. And it's flipping freezing in my garage and my nine year old's gone on strike for making me cups of tea !
     
  17. not needed for just the side fairings tho
     
  18. upper now fitted
    It was actually easier than the lower once I'd read the instructions properly and found out you had to slide it in from the right of the bike, rather than struggling from the left, as I had for 10 minutes before hand
    Instructions are for girls, right :)

  19. You know bloods actually purple as it looks through your skin until it mixes with oxygen!
