large silver conector
 

guy's and girl's.
Just brought an sps and in the middle of a stripdown over the winter
anyone know how to disconnect the large loom connector, the one that has a knurled part on it and sits on the right hand side of the bike (as u sit on it) it also seems to have a pin in a slot, whats that all about ?.
Have tryed not to force it to much so far but would rather know i am heading in the right direction.
any help would be great lads.

Twist the silver collar ;)

Sounds silly but i did'nt know if it was twist or pull typ connector. i presum its on a fine thread. Now i know i will get i bit stronger with it.
thanks nelly for your help.

its a quick-release connector . . .
 

same as used in the aerospace industry - twist and hey presto!
