I appreciate the good engineering and simplicity of the way BMW made those bolts and nuts hold the fairings. I hate the way Honda put rubber wellnuts everywhere on my 2018 CBR1000RR. Each wellnut cost 5$ to replace and have a very short life and aftermarket ones are just a waste of money. Good video!
Great video! Was doing mine and couldn't work out why the panel wouldn't come off. I watched this and saw that you have to remove the BMW badge to reveal yet another bolt. Thanks buddy, I could of broken my panel if I hadn't seen this 😀
Subbed, same as Robin, needing to install a radiator guard etc and also some replacement fairings and not get a $400 dollar service cost for something that shouldn't take more than an hour or so to do. I will hoist the new Kriega backpack in your honor. :)
Super helpful! My local dealer requires USD300 to only remove / install the fairings. Question, The upper faring has 2 short / 2 middle / 1 long bolts. I forgot to mark which one is which place... Do you remember which one is middle / short?
Tryna find a tutorial to disassemble the rear of the bike. I stupidly put a foldable torque wrench set under my passenger seat thinking they would stay but nope. They fell through some little while and now I gotta tear apart the rear fairing to get em out.
You CAN remove them but the fairings are raised where the wings are and it’ll have holes. Best thing you could do is buy a 23 and put 19-22 fairings on it. Or just buy a 19-22.

Great video. I guess I'm way too used to Yamahas, because I really think this is unnecessarily complicated ...
Really helpful video. Thanks very much. Stay safe...

Grazie brother!!!
The m1000rr is similar but different. There are more bolts and clips.
Hi. I just got my 2022 S1000RR. Want to add radiator guard. What’s the brand you got? Good? Thanks
TY Sir.
Awesome! Super helpful! How hard did you tighten the screws when you put the fairing back on?
Just enough so it’s a good chance they won’t come out!
@@N31LE Thanks man! Do you use loctite?
@@MotoPeWee no sir
Idk why bro but the winglets got me feeling ify. Are they removable? I loved the clean sleek look of the 2021/23. This my dream bike.
You CAN remove them but the fairings are raised where the wings are and it’ll have holes. Best thing you could do is buy a 23 and put 19-22 fairings on it. Or just buy a 19-22.
@@N31LE thanks for replying bro
Looks great in person. Don't worry about it.
@@N31LE Can you remove the winglet without removing the fairing?
@@UltimateKlasse nope fairings have to come off not sure if it’s bolts or clipped in.
