Make sure the screen is warm and use some spit or a tiny bit of oil to lube those awkward things.

When fitting mine, one of the rubber thingys with a brass thread insert in it fell down into no man's land. When I got another (I wasn't taking the whole effin front fairing apart to get it) I used a small piece of clear tape to hold it in place while I slid it in. Really though, it is not too hard. Just take your time and don't use too much force when trying to push on the new screen. Oh yeah, when tightening the screws, hold the allen wrench as if it were a pencil (ie don't hold it by the "L" handle part) This way, you won't overtight the screws and crack your brand new screen

for the loer 4 fixings onthe fairing,

fix the bolts loosly into the rubber fixings and pust througn the fairing and the screen, the rubber backs will go through the holes and then you just tighten up the head, dont overtighten them but do them egnough to compress the fittings
