# Remove the front fender
# Remove the cowl
# Loosen the bolt holding the ABS module in place from underneath, located above where the front fender was.
#: The ABS module appears to be mounted on two or three of these bolts with rubber vibration isolation around the bolts.
#: When this bottom bolt is free, the ABS module can be rotated from within the under-cowl area for better access to the innards.

# Loosen the bolts holding the helmet lock in place.
#: The left one is more easily accessible.
#: Clearances for the right bolt are very tight and it may not be possible to rotate any tool to loosen the right bolt.
#: After removing the left bolt, it can be possible to loosen the right bolt by holding the right bolt in place and rotating the helmet lock itself.
#: {{Warning|The left side bolt will have a ground strap ring and bite washer attached, take extra care DO NOT lose these.}}
