I use my visor cleaner spray or a window cleaning spray, as others have said, the screen scratches so don't 'go at it' with anything abrasive, even the edge of your nail to remove a bug splat can leave a mark......

You could also try researching what CBR500R owners have done, as the headers [on the previous generation] were basically the same across all three CB models, and I'm sure could be made to fit/a direct fit the 2019 X too if you wanted.

If you do swap the headers for a non-cat front system, you will need to incorporate a O2 sensor eliminator, but again, this ought to be documented amongst the CBR500R crowd.

Personally though, I agree with Motorboy - there really isn't going to be all that much (if any) benefit unless you are looking to tune the rest of the engine too perhaps?

I carry the sticky string in my kit with a small compressor. No experience with the string on my bike but I've used it on car tires on a number of occasions with good results.

It is, however, an absolute pain in the rear to use. Prepare your curse words, you'll be using a lot of them.

Yup, it is the same part number, so it is the same part.

To me it's such a bad idea with no real benefits it's not worth getting into
