Ok, how do you actually remove the clear plastic cover for the small light which is housed under the riders seat? I tried with a screwdriver to wedge it off but it wouldn't move...

I appreciate the light is pretty much useless, but it's not working and I just want to see if there's a faulty bulb or whatever.

Cheers;

As I remember when I took my bulb out it just squeeze the ends together. The lights in the trunk staying on was a common problem.

Nice photo ishmac. After you get the bulb out you'd probably do better to keep a small flashlight/torch under the seat or in one of the little gloveboxes, if you want to call them that. If the seat doesn't latch properly and completely the light will stay on and you'll have a dead battery.

Thanks for sharing the fantastic photo! It's well known that the black Swings are faster than any other colour! Laughing

Wow! Another great photo. 

I PM’d or emailed you last week regarding permission to include that (now these) photo(s) as the bimonthly forum photo.
