1Unscrew the retaining bolt in the lower corner of the panel. Pull the front edge of the panel away from the motorcycle to release the peg on the back of the panel from the grommet on the lower edge of the fuel tank. Draw the panel forwards to release the tab on the top rear edge from the slot in the seat cowling and remove the panel (see illustration).

2 Installation is the reverse of removal. Note that a small amount of lubricant (liquid soap or similar) applied to the mounting grommet will assist the peg to engage without the need for undue pressure.

2Lift the front of the seat and disengage the hooks at the rear of the seat under the rear cowling (see illustration).Remove the seat, noting how the tabs at the back locate.

3 Installation is the reverse of removal. Make sure the hooks at the rear of the seat locate correctly into the bracket under the rear cowling. When the hooks are located, push down on the seat to engage the latch.
