Not too hard at all. I did mine when the fairings were off, but you should be able to just unbolt the 3 fasteners on the cluster and pull it up, unscrew the speedo cable, turn the cluster over and replace the bulb.

I installed LED dash bulbs when I had my fairings off so that hopefully they'd last the rest of the life of the bike. That cluster is a bish to remove with the fairings on.

What's really fun is the speedo cable vibrating loose.

weird - I just realized I'm posting in 2 different threads about the same thing?

The bulbs are 168 (or (158 or 194) style push in.

If you wanna go LED you can get them here:
