I have one coming and was wondering is there any special way to remove the rear fairing to mount the back bracket?
It say's that it is attached with snaps but just thought there may be a trick on removing it without causing damage or braking clips.
THe rest seems easy drill the holes and attach the bracket. Just nervous about removing the little back piece of plastic below the rear tail light they call the rear fairing.
Any ideas??
Thank You,
Joe

there are four plastic clips holding the fairing on, when I removed mine I pushed them out from the inside as I had the battery case out,. but I removed a lot of clips, when I removed all of the plastic on the scooter, very few of them broke off, and those were flat ones,. very thin,. on the foot rest ,. the other was the nose piece, it plugs into two rubber holes and they are very thin pieces that holds the rubber, I broke one of them,. if you ever take the front piece off, lube the pieces when you assemble them , for the next time,. I am lubing all the clip plug ins ,. I hope that will make it easer next time I take it apart,. 2011 downtown over 29,000 km. and loving every mile I do,.

Thanks, for the response, I will be extra careful but I will also remove the battery box as well. I have a Shad rack mount but I got a Coocase in Metallic Pearl White that I believe will match my white Pearl Bike. It comes with alarm, Brake lights, remote control and Lined inside. I found it on ebay for $99.00. The only one I have been able to find that is Metallic Pearl White on top and Flat black on bottom.
