    Anyone ever taken the mid fairings off the 08 onwards blade?

    Is it a pain?

    Did he have the Repsol conversion by any chance?

    I have a small scratch about 1" on the LHS fairing and it's really annoying me! I'm waiting for a cheapie new panel to come up on eBay to replace it. I've had the lower cowl off no problems but I couldn't see any tabs for the mid panels.

    Yeah he had it when he bought it new. He really struggled with fairing removal. Found instructions on American site I think?
