If any of you new Gen II owners are thinking about maybe upgrading the park lights on the new bike, allow yourself at least 1/2 to change the bulbs.
What a mission, both front top side cowlings off, lower binacle cowling off, upper binacle cowling off, binacle housing off, then, and only then will you be able to see and feel the parker bulbs enough to pull them out and change them.
And yes, I considered going from underneath, but let me tell you, that way is just as hard, the double jointed amongst us may have better luck, but holy crap............I only wanted to change the bulbs!!!
Much better with new Super bright LED parkers, just don't buy the under $10 ones in Autobarn, they only shine light in the forward direction, and are piss weak. Got my set from E-Bay USA.
Very bright, and now only need to improve the headlight for some white light, yellow light is just so out this season!!!
