Default Removing bikini fairing?

Hi all, do any of you know of an online guide showing how to remove the bikini fairing from a curvy?

Gotta get myself a Haynes manual!

It's pretty easy- remove all the bolts you can see on the plastics plus the ones that hold the mirrors on (they're under plastic panels). Watch for the wee plastic studs underneath the front, you need to push the centre out with a small allen key or similiar. Also watch for the 2 small screws in the fake air vents. Once they're all out the side panels will remove, you need to disconnect the indicators too.

It's much the same deal for the centre piece- remove all the bolts and then disconnect the sidelight wiring.

To get them back in, shove the centre through the middle in the other direction so it sticks out the top, then fit them back in and push the centre flush. Or do what I've done and lose them all
