a Honda Reflex puzzles me...?

Joe brought his Reflex into town today.
(not an epic ride - he lives 4 blocks from the coffee shop)
Anyway - he wandered off to bother somebody - so I was looking at this Honda and wondering how you get to the engine.
That big center tunnel panel seems all of one piece - except on the L side, near the seat is a small panel.
The lower side seems to run well forward - and again, all of a piece.
The hips run down the sides and around the back, with no seam.

Maybe a lot of the work is done by removing the seat?
Oil changes I can understand - maybe that little L side panel is to the spark plug? - but a valve adjustment?!

BTW - this is the October day I met Joe - 5 years ago when we both rode are Red Hondas to town for coffee.

Good question!

This vid will show you the left side body panel removal to work on the CVT etc . . ..

But from what I can tell that little panel you mentioned on the left side plus some panel removal on the right side is needed to work on the valve adjustment. Somebody did post a valve adjustment video for the 250 Reflex but not the actual panel removal.
