Hello, I just finished today adding my Garmin satnav power lead to my ‘22 1050 using the accessory power outlet behind the offside tank cover. I had to get the panels off to remove the fuel tank and noted that although the offside tank cover came off quite easily, the nearside one was obstructed by the Accessory Bar B’s I had added when new.
I called the dealer to check whether I should have loosened/removed the accessory bars and was told it would be easier to do so, and to save scratching the coloured panels. When asked he said it was safe to loosen them off as it wouldn’t cause the engine to fall out! I felt foolish after asking.😂
I loosened the bolts I’ve marked A, B and C in the below image and was hoping someone on here with a 1050 may have fitted these bars and still have the instructions to tell me the torque settings for these bolts? I can call the dealer back in the morning, but was hoping to leave on a journey on my bike earlier than they open.
I’ve also included a photo to show the accessory bar I mean.
