    Removing front guard HEELLP!

    Help! have a cbr250rr, Getting fairings fixed and painted tomorrow, can't figure out how (if there is a way) to remove the front wheel guard without taking the wheel off? figure it should be pretty similar for every bike - 4 bolts taken out, two each side, guard moves around but can't figure out how to jimmy it out!!?? anybody know the secret?

    tiny bit of bending, kind of squeezing it, putting it in at a weird angle (one side at a time). On the way out i didn't mind scraping the paint as it was going to be painted...it was the way back in that I had to be careful

    Yup! Considering you can remove, and refit a wheel within 5 minutes.... and that includes walking all the way across the workshop for tools.....
