Headlight shell access
Headlight shell access
I never had an issue changing bulbs in my RS but it had easier access headlight shroud/glass. But the R90s fairing doesn't seem to offer as much accessibility, so pardon the noob (to this bike) question.
Is there a way to get into the headlight shell without removing the front fairing? (it's 25 degrees here today so I'd like to spend as little time in the cold garage as possible...)
Much appreciated!

Goes w/o saying, have some spare fuses and check for shorts/breaks in wiring--while you have access-to solve the fuse issue.
Cheers

The downside is that you will never blow another fuse again now that the change is easy.

Sorry for not responding sooner, thanks! Yea, the old rule; "while you're in there"bremoit wrote: ↑Sat Jan 23, 2021 9:46 pmYou 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.

That's usually how it goes, thanks!Wayne J in MA wrote: ↑Sun Jan 24, 2021 7:13 amA great modification is wiring in external fuse holders so that you can change these without a lot of work.
