What year?
On the 06-07 there is a large Phillips head screw, accessed through where the gas tank breather hose goes into the steering stem. Pull out the hose, and using a #2 Phillips screwdriver, loosen the screw. Then grab the plastic piece in the front, pull up (it snaps over the handlebars on each side) and slide it forward off of the screw. Installation is the reverse.

That screw is in an awful place to even try WD40 or whatever.
You may need to drill out the screw and replace it with a common hardware store of similar size, after tapping the hole to fit.
