                      Have you ever encountered this problem

    Many motorcycles today have fairings and they look great. Removing the fairings generally is a simplistic task. However problems can develop when re:assembling.
    The trick is not to tighten anything until all panels fit and then tighten all screws.

    Catch for any player is that starting from one side, moving on to the center and then finding out that opposite panel simply doesn't line up.

    I know from experience, so keep it loose and get all panels to fit, then tighten. The effect is like a vice, it all comes together nicely.
                                                               
                                                      Cheers    Phil
