As title can anyone advise me on removing the wheel before i have a go

Thankyou

 

need to disconnect the battery for an hour or so so the airbag doesnt go off,

there are 2 screws in the rear of the steering wheel which will allow you to remove the cover then the airbag. you will then be able to remove the steering wheel

 

Cheers

Is leaving the battery off for an hour a must or will disconecting it be enough ?

 

any extra advice before i tackle the job

 

needs to be left of for about an hour as the airbag could still go off if you just disconnect then mess about with the bag straight away

 

disconnect battery remove two screws out of back of steering wheel remove front panel and remove nut that attachs steering wheel!i dont know about leaving battery disconnected for a hour could be right but i never have probably worth checking that though as u dont want it going off

 

Refitting is the same as removal, but you can make sure that the air bag is suitable for the new bike because it is spoken of three four versions spoke. Also take precautions to straighten extreme wrapped connector. This is what gives the bag to remain connected to the wheel turned left and right. To get this thread could be dangerous Short airbag off while driving.
