    bit of help if poss please guys....

    after my track day and road kill strike, feeling a bit brave (i'm not very good mechanically) so started to strip front end for a good clean up, fit the rad guard and asses body work damage to lugs etc..

    got the side panels off ok (cheers dave uk) with a little more force and wiggling, but after removal of the left hand side, i cant seem to disconnect the horn (think its the horn) which is attached via the grey pipes.

    obviously the cable conectors are easy but this doesnt seem so obvious? and at the moment the side panels are attached by this last thing...

    any help please guys?

    Disconnect the grey vacuum pipes at the centre t piece use a screwdriver or small spike to work them loose and pull off, then each side is one electrical connector, pinch the top and they should pull free :)

    Basically follow the grey pipe back to the centre of the bike away from the fairing, then just pull the pipe off its the vacuum pipe for the IDC solenoid valve I think

    Cheers Jamie! I'll give that ago...

    Wasn't sure if they slid off ok, and didn't want to f*ck something up.

    They do but you think your going to break something :( use a flatblade to help tease them off it will be ok :)

    Hope there ain't to much damage :)
