tip for removing r12 screen so u dont scratch bike like i did

just a note to the r12'ers out there, be careful removing your windsreen...

see these little clips



dont leave them hanging on like this when you want to remove the screen like i did



take them off completely and pull the sreen towards you



so you dont scratch the nose fairing with the clips when pulling the screen out like this (bit blurry but its the two large marks, the little things are bugs

Thanks for the tip. So far I've ordered two tinted screens (different companies) for my 12s and they have been backordered for the last 3 months. I'm thinking seriously about the spray can approach from the inside.

Excellent tip, chewie. Thanks. Now I don't have to learn from my own mistake.
