    I am installing a new set of hard panniers on a 2002 VFR800. It currently has a Comp Werks low profile plate on it and I can't seem to get it off. It would appear that the light assembly needs to come off and there are two bolts pinned behind the frame! with 1/4" of space. How do I get this off! Please help! :) thanks...

    very small wrench, 6mm if i remember correctly. take a grinder to it and make it half thickness. it will fit easily after that.

    yup, that would do it. Guess i need to purchase a cheap wrench in the morning. At least it gives me an excuse to buy some new tools. Thanks!
