Hi all, are those 'tabs' on the side skirts an indication of the jacking points or are you supposed to remove them?

If they are to be removed do you simply pull them towards you? I was scared of snapping them.

I'll be using a bottle jack

    Just pull them off, very nerve racking the first time as you think it will snap but once you've done it once it's easy :)

    I was worried about this too, tried to take one off my ST just so I knew they would come off when I need them too, but gave up. It seems you have to use so much force it will bend the side skirts a lot just to get the tabs out. Do you just pull them outwards until they snap off?
