Its been quite a few yrs since i removed the shroud to install the tether. I remember it being a pain in the arse.
U need to access the bolts where the blue circles are.
Remove side panels and hood.
Remove the 2 screw in red circles. I think there are more under the hood plastic?
Remove gas cap and giant nut below it(thats what the large channel locks are for). Remove handle from pull rope. Carefully run the rope down through the steering post support, Don't let the rope go back into the starter...!

Remove the tierod (t40 /13mm) from under the support not the end u see in the pic.

Here is the bottom of the upper steering post. This is why u need pliers(cotter pin) and the reason for removing the pipe. Not sure if that's a 13,14 or 15mm?

I didn't take my sled apart far enough to take pics of the 2 side spar bolts but they are self explanatory .
Sorry it took so long but it takes time to upload pics .
I didn't cover evey step but enough to give u a good idea of the task at hand.
