A great modification is wiring in external fuse holders so that you can change these without a lot of work.

That's usually how it goes, thanks!

You can remove the fasteners on the upper fairing brackets (inside the fairing) and tilt the fairing-carefully-downward towards the front fender to access the headlight bucket.
