Ok.... new bike, never had a faired bike before and i want to remove both my side fairings to clean the bike really well..... i have looked on you tube for any videos but can find nothing.... is there no one who has done one of these teaching tapes ?? There are videos on how to juggle golf ***** whilst knitting !!! but not to rmove the fairings on a 954... anybody.

 

Try the manual...I think there is one here on line.

 

1. Remove front seat
2. Remove the 2 allen bolts and 1 plastic screw holding the air duct covers on the bike.
3. Remove 2 bolts at front of gas tank and using prop rod attached to bottom of front seat raise and prop up the gas tank. Place one end of rod in center hole at front of tank and other end in center of triple tree nut.
4. After propping up the tank remove the air duct covers.
5. Behind the side fairings are one black plastic tab that needs pulled out near the radiator. Do not remove it completely. Just loosen it by pulling it out.
6. Remove four plastic screw tabs holding the right and left sides of the fairings together along the bottom.
7. Remove the remaining bolts on each side fairing and remove them.

 

Its a Bitch on a 954! Follow the advice above. If you have any parts not wanting to let go. There are those little plastic push screws everywhere on the bike! 4 that hold the belly pan together. 1 each in the air rams. 2 on each side of the inner fairings. So dont start Yanking plastic! Just take your time and you will learn.

#5 as well. Its just a plastic button the doesnt come off. Just pull it and it should pop up.

PS. It takes me longer to pull the bodywork than it does to just change the oil......

 

Cheers guys.... just my luck !! I am already having issues with removing the bloody front seat, i can't find the bolts that the manual says are under the two end corners.... great start,

 

Lift the back corners from the top where the seat starts to slope down and there is a bolt on each side. You have to bend the corner of the seat to see the bolt.

 

they're there, just pull back on the seat a little bit. a long t-handle works great if they're allen key heads...

 

....once seat is removed. Throw it away!

 

Hey.... i like that seat.

 

Lol...good one, I'll say sell it and get a Corbin......just more $$$$
