Hi there, thank you for the service manual link but would appreciate point to point advice I’m not a mechanic or work in a service station
If you have the stock 1200 sport fairing and brackets, there are four allen bolts to remove. Two where the fairing bolts to the upper end of the bracket above the handlebars, and one on each side of the fairing. The fairing should just slide forward off the bike.
Once you have the fairing removed you'll notice that the headlight is secured with a hollow bolt with threads on each side. The centers are threaded for the side fairing Mount screws.
Remove those two bolts and the headlight should come free.
Pull it out from the bracket and flip around upside down. You will see a trapdoor in the back of the headlight bucket. Press the tang and remove the door and you will have access to both bulbs.
I normally replace both bulbs at the same time, and save the good bulb for a backup.
It's a 5-minute job to disassemble Max.
4 mm allen wrench and 10 mm socket or wrench if I remember correctly.
