    i did mine over a year ago and can't really remember how hard or easy it was, it could just be stuck. Is it the original screen?

    I suppose it down to how that screen was fitted, when i fitted my skidmarx one i had to mess on with it for a while till it fitted and it was a tight fit !!. it might need just a bit of force to release it ( but no too much ) ;)

    Old one is off, but no way is the new one going to fit! wider compared to the old one arrgghh
     
  8. i don't know women who can't get there kit off !!! :scarper:
     
  9. Also with the skidmarx screen, I had to file away some of the screen at the lower outer corners that push under the fairing. It was too thick and the curvature was too tight in that area overall.
