Front nose fairing removal

[fjrden]

Has anyone removed the front nose fairing surrounding the headlights? If some how easy, what to look out for,  what other panels need removed. Tata

I got it down to the black part that houses the vertical led light.......I couldn't get that bit off 
I'm sure I took the red (in my case), side panels off (easy), but IIRC, the front headlight surround had many little clips to secure it in place and that was a bit of a faff, but do-able!!

Ta read this before taking off side panels. No mention of panels at front or around headlamps. Too bad a good article
