Default Trackdays-4-Removing Fuses

Now I am sure this sounds intimidating, but it is really easy! Why do we want to remove these fuses? Well, you will be putting a plastic tape of sorts over your headlights and directionals. Rather than running the risk of the tape getting hot and melting I prefer to pull the fuses. I have no desire to replace my headlights due to my being careless.

Same disclaimer as before, if you break your bike, it's your fault!!! My R6 was used to demonstrate so your bike may be different. ALWAYS verify with your owner's manual before you attempt electrical items for warnings and tips.

Before you start, you may want to disconnect your battery. It is always a safe bet when you are trying something new for the first time. Safety First!

So, on my R6, I need to get to my fuse box which is beneath the plastic cover above the upper fairing and beneath the handlebars on rider's left. I am not sure of the technical term, but I kind of see it as my bike's "dash". To remove this piece, two screws need to be removed from the mid fairing as I have shown in the first two pictures below. All it takes is a 4mm allen wrench. Again, remember "Righty Tighty, Lefty Loosey", so using the allen wrench loosen both screws by turning the wrench to the left.
NOTE: There is a little plastic washer on the screw-make sure you don't lose it!!!! Picture three shows the screw and washer "assembly".
