How did you take the headlight out?

[Raux]

How did you take the headlight out?

it's a process. but here's the short
unhook the gauge cluster and take it off (pretty certain you need to do this, but i didnt try it without doing it)
there are two nuts at the lower triple holding the light. take those off
slide the light up off the upper triple rubber mounts. don't go to far.
unhook the connectors for the headlight and turnsignals
take off the light.
take all the part off the frame
paint or powdercoat
put it back together.

Nice!    I will be interested to hear about the Juice Box.  Does the BMC filter allow more air flow?

I just did a quick Google search. They are within ~$10 of each other. Not bad.

i got the BMC much cheaper in europe.

Shin Yo mirrors arrived. VERY nice quality. but did not have the bar end adaptors so off to the store for another part before they go on. maybe i'll find the mirror hole plugs at the same time.
