    What’s the best/easiest/safest way to remove the screen and replace with a new one. Trying to be cautious not to break the lugs and bearing in mind screen not been changed for 9 years!

    thanks all :)

    Really easy job this Liam...... Nothing really that can snap off. There are two locating pins at the front of the screen which locate in the nose fairing. Then it's just six well nuts I think! The well nuts can sometimes be a tight to get out of the holes, but of washing up liquid helps slide them out.

    Then that will be it for a little while i think. May try a letterbox style numberplate but don’t fancy an easy pull really

    I'm an easy pull, get your coat!
    I love a Mars bar plate.
