Replacing Light Bulbs

[ThreeWheels]

Am I mistaken ? Holy CRAP. You need to disassemble half the front end to replace a light bulb ?
How long are they expected to last?
On my Motorcycle, I would be real lucky to get a full season out of the bulbs.

put on 15000 miles last season and both bulbs are still working. But, yes, almost everything is tougher to get to on the Spyder compared to a cruiser type motorcycle that is all open.

My old bike (as of last Saturday) was an ST1100. Lot's of bodywork had to come off for modifications, but it came off pretty easily. I was looking at the Maintenance Manual for the RT. I'm planning some electronic additions soon, so I need to know how to get the body work off.
