High beam dash light?

How hard is it to replace the high beam dash light? Mine went out this weekend.

Takes longer than opening a cold one... Shorter than drinking it...

Unbolt the dash and turn it over... unplug bulb and replace... And put it back together...

or wait until you take the front fairing off and do it then. I need to replace my darn temp gage bulb...

Just reach behind the instrument cluster and pull out the rubber socket. Simple as that.

The side stand warning light is hard to reach for sure... but the high beam light is pretty low and easily accessible.

Well I did that one in like 2 seconds with no tools since I had one bulb lying around the garage.. I'll have to buy more just in case I guess.
