What comes off to access the left front compartment?

Post by millenium7 »

Just bought a 2015 R1200RT and it has wear to the front left compartment latch mechanism. It doesn't latch very well anymore
I want to get in and disassemble it to either clean and lubricate, or 3d print and replace the latching slider

Have yet to do any work on the bike so unfamiliar with its body work. What needs to come off (and in what order) to be able to get to it?
