My LIKE200i  on lline manual freq says to remove more stuff than is absolutely necessary. I found enough room behind muffler to screw out caliper holding bolts, leaving exhaust in place. Could not remove bolts from holes....but things were un screwed so i could lift out caliper to play with the pads.
Slip caliper back onto disc after pushing back pads for clearance....bolt it back up!
Maybe you have room enough to do same?

It's not a big job, remove the caliper. Makes the entire process way easier.

Our DT uses sliding calipers.  Meaning only one side of the caliper houses the piston.

So one side will generally wear faster than the other.

You need to monitor the pad such as the faster wearing side is the pad wear indicator. Replace both pads at the same time.

Thanks everyone who replied to my question. The problem is now solved. Someone helped me to whack on the cap with rubber hammer as I was twisting the key. By doing this for about a minute, I was suddenly able to turn the key fully and then it poped out.

you do not have to remove front (around head lights) to get the bottom pieces off. As kneeslider said
really no need to take that apart, just to clean unless you just have time to kill and want to see what's in there. I took mine off because I was fabricating highway foot pegs, as the operators area is a bit small on the DT. I had ti find some steel under there to attach HW bar set up

To be honest, I wouldn't even bother with it. I'd just spray water in there to rinse it and call it a day.

and my scooter is already on 47000kms, daily rider thru the tropical heat and monsoon seasons.
