Removing body on a G8

[freddmc]

I have a Yamaha G8 that I want to remove the bodywork for painting.

Are there any secrets to removing the bodywork or is it straightforward.?Is they a manual for this?

Thanks

Awsuming the top is off, seat back support bolts, seat hinge bolts, bag well bolts, hex head side body bolts, f/r shifter "c clip" and choke cable.

2 screws hold on the Yamaha emblem, behind it is 2 more screws and a plate. Then there about 10 10m nuts that hold the rubber cowel/metal trim on. I would recomend pulling the drink holder out for access to the nuts.
