lost nut!

[frazmarti]

hi,

I was fitting a new flyscreen today when a nut fell into the gap between the front of the handle bars and the tank, it is full of cables and all sorts, i cannot for the life of me get into the space to get it nor can i see in, would it be ok to leave the nut in the space or am I going to have to remove the tank etc to gain access!

And the puig universal screen isnt fitted either, not been a good day!

ta

and have a good new year!

You can unbolt the tank at the front and it hinges at the rear. You need a prop to hold it up.

The coils are in that space in front of the battery.

Oh never mind, I was going to give a smart remark.

No. Remove the seat. Undo the 2 bolts at the front of the tank. Lift the front of the tank.

thank you, I'll give it a go!

When you put the tank back down you need to check the overflow and breather hoses are pulled through enough down by the front right footrest.

all sorted, I had to remove the battery and air filter in the end!
