    Hi All.
    Need to remove the right side mid faring panel to access red plug so I can add a key to the H.I.S.S.

    Don't want to break anything so any advice on how to remove this panel gratefully received.

    Allen key, pliers/grips for spinning well nuts, small adjustable and a bit of patience. It's an easy job but a bit fiddly as there are strange bits to remove the the cowls/shields on the inside near the radiator.

    As above... also, don't go pulling it away from the bike once you've released it, as the indicator leads will still be attached... watch out for those!

    From memory, you'll also need a phillips screwdriver to release the clips that secure the inner trim panels. And a pokey of some kind (I usually use a very thin allen key) to release the trim clips under the nose cone. Only one of these needs to be released to remove the mid fairing, but I cant remember whether its the front-most or rear-most one.
