Hi Everyone

If I just want to pull off the front right fairing panel, what do I do?? 2014 Forza 300.

Is there a flow chart to follow to take something else off first?

How to approach lifting out the tabs?

Thanks!

John

Ok, this is for a Forza NSS300, right?? :D

but, you didn't specify whether you meant front right upper or front right lower....

for the front right upper, start with the windshield trim garnish and work down

for the front right lower, start at the center bottom panel, under the radiator, and work up

if you're going all the way in removing the lowers, you may have to remove the floorboards
(in which case you start in the middle, under the seat, and work forward!)

Hi - that is very helpful, thanks.

It is the upper right front fairing.

I sold the bike and want it to be flawless for the new owner. I put a small scratch alone the crease on that side. Painted and repaired, but it does not look 100%, so, ordered the replacement part.

How do you lift these sections out?

Do I have to remove any other piece before taking it off?

Thanks!

John

I just looked at the manual and if you want to REMOVE the upper front fairing, you have to do ALL of the above!!

:oops:

you need remove the shield garnish, wind shield, meter visor and front meter panel from the top
you need to remove the center bottom panel and radiator cover from the bottom
you need to remove the floorboard mats and footrest panel from the rear

then you can remove the fairing lowers, THEN you can remove the upper front fairing....
there are several internal stays inside the nose piece.

it looks like that particular piece of plastic is connected to everything?

sorry!

give the new owner the part. Youve went above and beyond, and besides itll be the start of their bonding process :)
