I put everything back together, making sure the bike was able to run before putting the fairing back on, and it's back to its old stock self. I did get healthy understanding with everything I did today, though.
Perhaps I'll try the DIY throttle slop fix.  |
Sean,
sorry to hear that.
yes, you need to be
very careful with those screws and apply downward pressure before you apply sideways torque other wise you end up stripping the heads. the real solution is to get the JIS screwdrivers, but I have had mine off/on many times and the screws are still in good shape, so there is a method to the madness.
Is there enough room to grab the screw head with long nose vise grip pliers?
what DIY throttle stop fix?
