I know someone postd this a while back...but how the fck do you remove the gauges on the 03 zx6r. I wanna send them out to bluegauges.com and don't wanna fck anything up, but when it comes to me trying things myself I tend to break things. Thanks for any help. Oh and for those that say try a search...I TRIED.. can't find it...if I overlooked it then I'm sorry.

#1 take off mirrors
#2 take off windscreen
#3 take out 2 bolts behind the gauges on the bottom, its a tight fit to get a socket wrench in there.
#4 take out the 2 bolts on the sides of the gauges.
Now the gauges will lift out of the bike.
#5 now unscrew the 3 screws that are holding the gauges on to its housing.
#6 Pull out wire harness by pressing down on top and pulling out.

Tommyboy..

Does removing the mirrors help with that black plastic piece that runs over the back of the gauges???? I took the windscreen off tonite and then saw that plastic piece. My bike is stored at another garage and I didn't have any of my tools to take the mirrors off..I only had the allen keys in the tool kit that came with the bike. I really wanna get the gauges out to send to BLUEGAUGES.COM ASAP.

What you can do when you put it back in is put a couple of washers on the bottom bolt and it will tilt the gauge up so you can see it better under normal riding conditions. I did it and really like the change, it's easier to see the whole thing including the low gas light.

the mirrors are the same size bolt as the other 4 bolts that you have to take out. So if you dont have that socket then you should just hold off till you do. And its kinda tricky getting the 2 out from behind that black plastic part.
