Remove the coolant inside by opening the draining plug located in the water pump. This is a MUST unless you want to get all wet and a mess on the floor every time you remove a hose.

Start with the hoses at the radiator cap; there are three hoses here which are easy to unfasten and remove

On the left side on the bike, there you'll see the connector for another hose that comes from the right side T connector. Unfasten clamps from both end of hose and remove it from the left side.

Also, wear latex or nitrile globes as coolant is bad for your hands.
