I find it easier to remove the front and both sides together, there's enough stretch to take it over the brackets, but put a cloth over the top brackets to prevent scratching the fairing paint. If you use an old sweatshirt on the tank the sleeves slip over the brackets nicely. Place a cloth on the front mudguard as you will need to rest the front section onto the mudguard while you disconnect the sidelight connector and indicators.

Lastly, make sure you have somewhere to put it down before removing it.

Then you can separate the three sections if you wish.

It's not falling off, it's an upgrade opportunity.

Depends on the hugger. Some of then dont need one, some you put the OEM guard over the top.

Just see if it fits.
