[QUOTE="RossKean, post: 1460745, member: 19880"] Are you aware of this thread? [URL unfurl="true"]https://www.fjrforum.com/threads/gen-ii-plastic-and-cowling-removal.116788/[/URL] I have never had a problem with that one and I don't remember how it is secured Clip-nut (spring-nut) perhaps? Can you access it from underneath if you lift the tank? With the tank pivoted up on the (loosened) rear bolt, you may be able to get to it or at least drill a small access hole in the plastic that won't show with the tank in place. Other possibility is to hold the screw in place with pliers and drill it out. Or maybe try to cut a slot in the head using a Dremel with a cutoff wheel and using a flat head screwdriver to hold the screw from the side to keep it from spinning while you drill. Good luck.
