Hi,
Because i wanted to see how easy it was to put back on I forgot to take a few photos of the cowl it self showing the three(3) hooks ,pins what ever you call them that are on the cowl which had me stuffed to why it would not come off.
The black piece that runs along side your fuel tank has one (1) hook, pin, that goes down into a rubber grommet and has to be pulled up not out to be released as WarChild has said. The other two (2) hooks, pins, are pull out wards to be released from the rubber grommet again as WarChild has said. Under the front where the chin is, I did find it easy to remove only right side black piece from the cowl, was once I removed the two (2) fasteners, you can see two (2) black dots there, I pushed on the right side black dot and my cowl came lose from the chin black piece.
My thanks to Warchild for writing "how to remove the right side cowl on a K8" and TimF for your help.
Cheers
John
