Your step by step is so clear and helpful. But it also made me think twice about removing them myself. My next worry is putting them back on. Thank you.
Anyone know where to get oem fairing I messed up my left side and need just the left side.. I went on the website but I don't know the exact part number (they call them cowling)

Im in the middpe of doing this right now. But i stopped short of removing the pop rivets because i dont know if this ruins them or not. I dont have replacements, can i reuse the same rivets when reassembling?
Thank you so much for this video, it's great! I ran into a problem though - when I was removing the piece with the pop rivets (around 3:40), at the same time two nuts also fell out from I don't know where...I think they are 10mm. Or at least that's what socket they fit. I'm not sure where they came from, any help would be appreciated!
Karli M hmmm not sure where they would have come from. There are a few possibilities from that area. Exhaust header, radiator, somewhere up top. That area is kind of a catch all. I'd start looking at anything that you have taken off or had work done on before. Unlikely they would just fall off on their own.
@@blewbot Considering I have zero mechanical experience I should probably have someone who knows what they're doing look at it then lol. Thank you for the reply!
The seat just lifts off. Remove the rear seat with the key(cylinder is on the tail on the left side) once it is off just life up and pull back on the main seat it will easily come off.
Can't see a problem with it, in fact it would essentially be a "street fighter" then. The fairings are cosmetic. They probably provide some aerodynamics but nothing that would prevent you from riding it.
Amazing video man! straight to the point with vivid detail. Thanks for not spending 40 uneditted minutes unscrewing everything

Thanks man your videos are one of the best
You made taking off my fenders so much easier, didn't know how wrong I was till I saw this. Thanks
Nick Hosmanek awesome! Glad it was helpful for you.
Best video
Good job!
Great guide, I'm having trouble removing the front fender, (the water guard over the front tire)
Got one issue putting back together lost push pins replaced then but the one that goes on cowling around dash push pin won’t hold down
Where’d you go?! I’d love to see some more motorcycle vids from you!
Can you remove the head of the engine after removing the fairings to do valve clearance check?
Do you know where to order the frame sliders for the wheels abd handlebars?
can you make a detailed video by removing the front fairing and the headlight pls! thank u
Can you put it back together

If you are replacing the lower fairing, do you have to remove the upper fairing? Or can you just take the side off.
Inducing Panic you don't "have" to. But it is much easier. You still have to remove the bolts as they connect to the side fairings.
Im in the middpe of doing this right now. But i stopped short of removing the pop rivets because i dont know if this ruins them or not. I dont have replacements, can i reuse the same rivets when reassembling?
You ever end up trying?? I’m about to do the same for an oil / coolant change. Do I need different pop rivets or are they good to go being reused ?
@@BigDraco__1 yeah they're reusable, some may break if you're not careful but you can find replacements easily
@@dcpride26 awesome bro appreciate you responding 👍
If you unplug the gauge or speedometer, does it mess up the odemeter or anything else?
Nope. It's all good when you plug it back in.
where did you get the wind screen?
Leo K it's the stock one. Just took it off and painted it black with a semi gloss plastic bonding spray paint

This is a awesome video ! but how do you remove the seat ? I need to install a power commander. The video made by their website does not show it. :(
The seat just lifts off. Remove the rear seat with the key(cylinder is on the tail on the left side) once it is off just life up and pull back on the main seat it will easily come off.
@@blewbot i have not seen any key cylinder anywhere on the tail but I'll check again and get back to you.
Can i ride my bike without all the fairings and still be okay?
Can't see a problem with it, in fact it would essentially be a "street fighter" then. The fairings are cosmetic. They probably provide some aerodynamics but nothing that would prevent you from riding it.
Could you please write down the list of the instruments you are using in this video.
