F3 Headlight Change?
Has anyone changed a headlight on a 1996 F3? Do the side fairings w/ signals have to be removed along w/ the upper fairings and windscreen? If anybody has a step by step process to do this it would be appreciated. It seems like alot of plastic removal to change this headlight. Thanks...

Bulb or housing? If it's the bulb, you don't need to remove anything except the old bulb, although it's at total PITA cuz it's near impossible to see what yu're doing. If it's the housing, then you gotta pull off all the fairings to remove it.

The only thing I don't like about taking it apart is putting it back together. Takes longer to put it together than to take it apart. hahaah
