Now, to remove this plastic cover (again 2003-2004 R6), you need to push it TOWARDS the headlight of the bike. There are two little tabs on the mid fairing that hold it in place. I have pointed them out in picture two. Once you have it pushed forward, it will "pop" out from beneath the mid fairing as I have pointed out in the first picture.
I know you will feel like you are going to break your bike...just be gentle and remember that plastic is more durable than you think. It does have SOME flex to it. Now this does NOT mean you grab hold of it and just rip it off in a bionic woman fashion. This will break off the tabs that hold it in place and end up costing you money in the end. Be gentle but firm and you will guide it out of position and off the bike.
