Remove cover from lock. A small flathead screwdriver will do. There is a slot for you to insert the screwdriver in. Just pry it off.

Unplug the connector on each half of the nacelle. These go to the two toggle switches. One is used to turn on/off passing lights the other is aux.

This is what it looks like with the nacelle removed. U dont have to remove the nacelle but you have much more room to work with if you do remove it.

Now your handlebar clamp is exposed. If all you need is to adjust your handlebars this is it. Just loosen the bolts with a 1/4 inch allen wrench.

Now you can apply your fron brake lever and wedge a piece of cardboard so the lever does Not go back to its regular position. This is to protect the little switch that is on your control housing from getting damaged. Now do the same for clutch side. Sorry, i forgot to take pix of this. You will need torx sizes t25 and t27 to remove the levers and switch housings. There are two screws on each (one on bottom and one on top).
