Service Manual FTW.

I could not get the tail off my bike the other day...looked in the book...you have to take other pieces off first and there are sneaky little tabs in weird places.

Ditto with the uppers on mine. There are three screws underneath pieces where you'd never think to look. One goes to a frame tab, and two go to the headlight surround. Try to force it, and *SNAP*. Luckily, mine was broken the first time I took it off and I could see everything.
