    My 09 Repsol arrived yesterday a day late and family commitments meant it went straight in the garage and I went straight out, pure self inflicted torture!
    So if that's not bad enough I've inflicted some more becasue the drive is being dug up and replaced leaving the bike landlocked for 4 days.
    Anyway the point of my post. I bought the bike knowing it had a small crack in the nose cone and it came with a brand new replacement which now needs fitting.
    Can anyone point me to a guide or workshop manual that details removing it please?

    Ha Ha, the eagle eyed amongst you may notice the blue bike in my avatar is also a blade, so obviously I used to be called "Dave The Other Blade", before that I was just "Dave the". Got the nose cone off and much easier than I thought probably just jinxed myself now and will never get it back on!

    Thanks bradt and all, hoping to get out by the weekend but still got a 2 foot drop from the garage to the lack of drive way. If it's not done by the weekend I'm going to Evil Kneivel it and make a break for freedom. Bike nearly back together, just waiting for the tank cover to come back from a mate who's given it a fresh clear coat.
    I found another manual online, looks pretty similar to the one Voleracing kindly found just a bit neater.
