MAIN MAINTENANCE OPERATIONS Side body panels (fig. 25) To remove the body panels proceed as follows: unscrew the three fasteners (1) placed under the fairing RH and LH side; unscrew the four headlamp fairing fasteners (2); unscrew the four frame fasteners (3). E Removing the fairing Some servicing operations need the motorcycle fairing to be removed. Warning Firmly secure all removed parts when refitting them, otherwise some of them might suddenly come off when riding and you may loose control of your motorcycle. Important At reassembly always fit nylon washers when tightening fastening screws, not to damage painted parts and Plexiglas headlamp fairing. Some fastening screws are of the self-tapping type; do not overtighten, otherwise treading might damage thus avoiding further use. 2 3 1 fig. 25 36
