Replace Rear Wheel Cover and License Plate Bracket
Posted: Wed Apr 20, 2022 6:09 pm
Hi
So without me giving all the gory details why, I need to replace the Rear Wheel Cover and License Plate Bracket on my 2016 RT. At first glance it seems like something I should be able to do, but figuring out how to remove everything that's in the way is the challenge (and re-install later too!). So Plan B would be for me to buy the parts and then find some official place to do the work for me. But I figured it's worth a shot trying to figure out myself first.
Here is what it looks like now

Here is a link to a PDF of the parts that seem to make up this cover, bracket, bolts, etc.

I know there are many YouTube videos about removing different panels etc. from our bikes but I can't find anything to get to this rear wheel cover. It's easy, of course, to remove the seats, grab bars / luggage rack but I sort of stopped there for now.
Any help and advice would be appreciated. Thanks.
