Who me? :lol:

Remove pillion seat.
Remove the side panels, 4mm Allen key.
Remove riders seat, 6mm Allen key.
Remove grab rail, 12mm socket.
Remove pillion seat lock, No2 Phillips screwdriver, unclip outer cable from stop, and nipple from lever.
Remove six screws, No2 Phillips, in rubber grommets under seats, watch for the little spacer tubes falling out.
Under rear bodywork locate the plastic poppers that hold the bodywork to the undertray/battery box, press their centre pin with a slim screwdriver or similar and the pin will pop in about 3-4mm, grasping outer of popper pull it out.
Disconnect white three pin plug for rear light.
Carefully wiggle bodywork off your bike ensuring the seat lock cable doesn't snag.

That might be everything, you never know. :lol:

Refitting is a reverse of removal, make sure that you get the seat cable into place when replacing the bodywork, and doubly make sure that you reconnect it to the lock before you put the seat back on, or you could find yourself in an awkward spot. With the plastic poppery fittings push the pin back out so that it sticks out of the outside of the flange by about 3-4mm, put the popper in place and press the pin in flush, it should click and hold firm.
