I took the screen off to get it tinted ...the place I went to couldn't do it ,but anyways ...here is a how to.
The owners book tells you want to do ,but if your unsure use this as a "guide" , it's not off a manual.
If some one knows a better way speak up ..or this is the way I did it.
It's not hard ,but abit confusing and a worry with out a manual or never doing some thing like this before on a bike and we have alot of new riders etc ..
.
First get a piece of paper and draw a picture of the bikes and place screws in the picture ,not all screws are the same size ..I should of been a artist ! .
I pulled a few extra things off to clean the bike ,so don't look at my drawing and how many screws.
Take these 2 screws out to remove the gauges housing....speedo etc.
Now this is the hard part .
The gauges is held in by the 2 screws you removed and a plastic pin that is on the back of the gauges housing.
{if your not sure what I mean remove the side panel you remove to check the water level ,it's the same sort of pin and hole.}
Lift the bottom of the gauge housing A LITTLE and try to wiggle it out A LITTLE till you can get your fingers on each side of the gauge housing and pull it straight out towards you...I found it easier to sit on the bike ..you pull straight then.
And the pin in the back .
Remember don't pull hard ,it will come just do it slow, it's still wired up .
^^^^ Push down the clip ,it's the flat piece in the middle of the plug ,you can just see a small circle on it ...see your owners book for another picture.

Remove the 2 screws at the front of the screen.
Remove the plastic fairing cover that the guages sits in {the one with the warning stickers on it ,the ones you probably scraped off.}
And now the screen.
Remove the 2 screws that the screen is held on by under the fairing.
Then pull it up and out on ONE SIDE.
Alot of these screws have rubber gromits and metal clips that the screw ,screws into ,that can come off and so be careful not to lose them.
To put it back together just to it in reverse ,and check the wire cable for the plug is not in the way and push the guage housing back in.
It's not hard to do and ,easy once you have done it but take your time .
You can use this "GUIDE" to change the head light.
Replace screen.
Paint it.
Get it tinted.
Remove RAM air duct covers ,so you can paint your air duct mesh.
Remove RAM air duct covers ,to fit driving lights under the mesh.
Please NOTE .do this at your own risk.
