How to remove the fairing off a ST1300 

Thanks very very very much! You are the only one who explains this. I'm going to do the job too💪💪💪

VERY USEFUL. Just did my 2009 in October (new to me in July 2024). Removed the fairing, wrapped the headers in fiberglass to insulate against some of the heat that percolates up to the saddle, also did a wrap on the fairings. I am progressively wrapping the whole bike - the fairings are particularly difficult, with their many undulating surfaces - especially for a first time wrapper, not perfect, but doing a camo, so it is "forgiving" to imperfections & I get better at it ev ery minute more I spend doing it.

2023 and your video is still helping us out! Thank you for the helpful video. Got my police bike apart and back together easily with your help.

Thank you Sir! Hope you're still enjoying MC riding. I've been doing it for 60 years and am always learning.

Thanks for sharing this and all your videos. Your content has been the best that I've found on RU-vid for DIY ST1300 maintenance. Your step by step instructions have been perfect and easy to follow. Thank you.

Thank You! Clear, concise and right down to business.

I have a 2012 ST 1300 and had to replace the turn signal switch assembly. Couldn’t get to the connectors. Was dreading taking the faring off. Your video made it so easy. Thank You

Thanks for taking the time to make this well detailed & informative vid. I took mine apart to bleed the brakes (two weeks ago) & need a refresher to remember how it goes back together lol

Thanks so much for posting this video. Knowing the order of disassembly and where to find the fasteners is invaluable. Thanks again!

Hello, I just bought an '03 and want to give it a good cleaning, thanks for the tutorial. I see all those JIS Phillips screws and I see a lot of socket head / cap / allen screws (call them what you will) in my future, I also see a lot of use for my electric screwdriver. Good job, thank you.

This is very straight forward and say compared to the Concours14. That bike is a nightmare to work on. It is as though the spark plugs were the first thing fitted to the assembly stand.

Cheers buddy, just got my Pan and will be taking these off for a good look round over winter. That has saved me some time. Cheers 👍🏍

Thank you very helpful video quick question.Would it be safe to ride with all the ferrying off. To save time and money when going for repair ??

Thanks for posting, that helped me a lot.

Thank you...about to replace my horn so I'm hoping this helps. I believe I only need to remove the right side (as seated on the bike) to do this.

Hey thanks mate! you saved me hours in a lot of frustration Dash and I’ve done this before. Lol.

Man thank you for this. I have to do this to trace a faulty wire on my 05

A really informative video! Thanks mate! Shiny side up!

Very informative. Thanks. Anyone know roughly how long to remove both sides and front (assuming nothing is seized up) as I have to replace the down pipes on mine and am trying factor in a time scale. Optimistically hoping I should have the pipes off an back on over a weekend 🤞

good video mate, thank god someone did it

Invaluable - thanks so much.

How many bits and bobs to take off so i can fit speakers do you reckon? Edit: a better question might be, how much of the fairing needs to be removed in order to fit speakers?

Big help thanks very much.

Thank you for the video. Great help.

Good platform

Great video. Half of the man hours in a dealer is taken removing the plastics. Worse with a scooter.

Thank you

Was that the video you mentioned in the brake bleeding video?

Hi, one question. I just bought the speakers kit. To install it do i have to unmount everything or is there are shorter way?

Thanks ! That's a lot of Tupperware !!

Actual removal starts @1:50

What are those bottons on the side of the fuel tank??

Now I see the problem. I've been using a crowbar and 3 pound hammer.

I have a problem: The key on my locking glove compartment is broken. Rather, I think some debris fell into the key mechanism. Regardless, I cannot open the glove box to gain access to those internal screws. I may have to break the lock, then replace it. Darn it.

Can I just take the front bit off to change my screen motor?

I would have been changing as many screws as possible to hex heads....anything with a Phillips style head is a problem waiting to happen...

👍

Can you provide the make and model of your heated grips? Thanks

What a phaff, great video.
