Cleaning Inside of Headlamp Lenses?
 

I have and SV K3 S model. It is possible to clean the inside of the headlamp lenses?

If so, I guess the whole top fairing has to come off?

If the fairing does have to come off, will I regret it when it comes to trying to fit it back on?

Thanks
Tim.

headlights are one unit, you can't open them as they are not only clipped together but have a very sticky black mastic stuff as well, the only way would be a stick or something with a bit of rag on it threw the bulb holes?

Have to ask, how did you get it dirty in there anyway :smt017

I don't know. I'ts not dirt as such buch looks like a liquid has dried and left marks. I first noticed it last winter and it seems to have got worse.

Just thought that next time I give it a major clean I would do this as well.

Sounds like condensation, possible dirty condensation too if it leaves a real obvious mark. Unfortunately the headlights are a sealed unit on both curvy and pointy SV's.

only way i can think of is to take the unit off, get a pointy stick, tie a CLEAN rag to the end and through the bulb holes... not ideal though and make sure it is a CLEAN rag, else you will end up with more gunk in there then you started with...
