In this video I demonstrate how to remove the fairings off an ST1300 also known as a Pan European. Whilst not particularly difficult to do, if done incorrectly, can result in the fairing being broken, and expensive to replace. This takes you from the first to bolt to the last...

Thank you Sir! Hope you're still enjoying MC riding. I've been doing it for 60 years and am always learning.
VERY USEFUL. Just did my 2009 in October (new to me in July 2024). Removed the fairing, wrapped the headers in fiberglass to insulate against some of the heat that percolates up to the saddle, also did a wrap on the fairings. I am progressively wrapping the whole bike - the fairings are particularly difficult, with their many undulating surfaces - especially for a first time wrapper, not perfect, but doing a camo, so it is "forgiving" to imperfections & I get better at it ev ery minute more I spend doing it.
2023 and your video is still helping us out! Thank you for the helpful video. Got my police bike apart and back together easily with your help.
Thanks very very very much! You are the only one who explains this. I'm going to do the job too💪💪💪
Very helpful. Just got my 2016 ST1300PA. Was dreading attempting this on my own. No I'm ready.
Thanks for sharing this and all your videos. Your content has been the best that I've found on UA-cam for DIY ST1300 maintenance. Your step by step instructions have been perfect and easy to follow. Thank you.
I have a 2012 ST 1300 and had to replace the turn signal switch assembly. Couldn’t get to the connectors. Was dreading taking the faring off. Your video made it so easy. Thank You
Great job, and fantastic teaching.
Thank You! Clear, concise and right down to business.
Thanks for taking the time to make this well detailed & informative vid. I took mine apart to bleed the brakes (two weeks ago) & need a refresher to remember how it goes back together lol
Thanks so much for posting this video. Knowing the order of disassembly and where to find the fasteners is invaluable. Thanks again!
Hello, I just bought an '03 and want to give it a good cleaning, thanks for the tutorial. I see all those JIS Phillips screws and I see a lot of socket head / cap / allen screws (call them what you will) in my future, I also see a lot of use for my electric screwdriver. Good job, thank you.
This is very straight forward and say compared to the Concours14. That bike is a nightmare to work on. It is as though the spark plugs were the first thing fitted to the assembly stand.
Cheers buddy, just got my Pan and will be taking these off for a good look round over winter. That has saved me some time. Cheers 👍🏍
Thank you very helpful video quick question.Would it be safe to ride with all the ferrying off. To save time and money when going for repair ??
Thank you...about to replace my horn so I'm hoping this helps. I believe I only need to remove the right side (as seated on the bike) to do this.
Man thank you for this. I have to do this to trace a faulty wire on my 05
Hey thanks mate! you saved me hours in a lot of frustration Dash and I’ve done this before. Lol.
Thanks for posting, that helped me a lot.
A really informative video! Thanks mate! Shiny side up!
good video mate, thank god someone did it
Great video. Half of the man hours in a dealer is taken removing the plastics. Worse with a scooter.
Cheers buddy, surprised just how much of the labour cost would be removing and replacing the plastics. Ride safe.
Very informative. Thanks. Anyone know roughly how long to remove both sides and front (assuming nothing is seized up) as I have to replace the down pipes on mine and am trying factor in a time scale. Optimistically hoping I should have the pipes off an back on over a weekend 🤞
Invaluable - thanks so much.
How many bits and bobs to take off so i can fit speakers do you reckon?
Edit: a better question might be, how much of the fairing needs to be removed in order to fit speakers?
Thank you for the video. Great help.
Was that the video you mentioned in the brake bleeding video?
What are those bottons on the side of the fuel tank??
Big help thanks very much.
I have a problem: The key on my locking glove compartment is broken. Rather, I think some debris fell into the key mechanism. Regardless, I cannot open the glove box to gain access to those internal screws. I may have to break the lock, then replace it. Darn it.
Thank you
Good platform
Thank you
Hi, one question. I just bought the speakers kit. To install it do i have to unmount everything or is there are shorter way?
Bluetooth helmet speakers
Actual removal starts @1:50
Thanks ! That's a lot of Tupperware !!
Can I just take the front bit off to change my screen motor?
Now I see the problem. I've been using a crowbar and 3 pound hammer.
I believe both methods are just as effective lol Hope your well sir, were in the mid 20's over here, with a cool breeze, is the perfect riding weather.
Do you still have your ST?
Can you provide the make and model of your heated grips? Thanks
Hi Bill, apologies for the late response, the grips fitted were the factory fitted ones. They just have Honda written on them.
👍
I would have been changing as many screws as possible to hex heads....anything with a Phillips style head is a problem waiting to happen...
Not wrong Roy, the copper grease will hold it for a while, whilst I order in the new bolts. Why anyone would put that type of bolt near the back wheel, beats me, but shouldn't be surprised, its the same people that put a maintenance item at the back of an engine, and makes taking out the engine, an acceptable process of replacement.
GTs Garage ....unfortunately ended up with a scooter few weeks ago 2011 and almost every screw is rusty so I'm on eBay buying 100% replacements and hex heads not those useless Phillips style....hmmm
@@GTsGarage Hi, a very informative video. The maintenance item on the back of the engine that you mentioned, is it on the Honda ST1300?
What a phaff, great video.
Thanks Chris, appreciated.
A see a rugby shirt are u a rugby league?
