    Gen 3 Fairing Removal

    I need to remove the top left fairing on my new bike. I have done a search on here and can only get so far. Are there screws behind the glove box? If so, how do I get to them. I have the new fairing and it looks like there are 3 hidden screws. Any help would be appreciated, thanks.
