    Finally after many many months of indecision have decided to but a 2016/17 Repsol, first job will be to remove pillion pegs. I have removed from my 09 (subframe off etc) is it the same procedure or has the job been made easier on the later bike ?

    a 16 plate bike I would assume it to be the same as my 15 plate so still a pita,
    A 17 plate is the newer shape which I think is just a simple unbolt?
    If it’s the newer 17 you might want to check the authenticity of the repsol as I don’t think they made a repsol? I’m normally wrong mate but worth checking
