I realised recently during a major service that the side panels under the front seat are held in place by 4 screws per side, with the lower front screw only accessible once the main side upper fairing panel is removed. This is a pain if you wish to gain access to the ABS modulator unit to do a brake system fluid flush (for example). Solution - leave out the forward lower screw on each side panel. To remove the panels you just need to remove the remaining (3) screws, then with the pannier doors open, slide the side panels back and outwards to remove them, easy, and no longer part of any sequence. Hope this helps others, anything to simplify things.
