Fuel tank removal

[Tiiimmmaaayyyy]

Hi all,

How do I remove or tilt the tank out of the way? I've removed the trim panels and top cover, pulled the hoses off the tank and removed the two tank bolts. Now what? It doesn't seem to want to pivot out of the way.

Once the two side bold are our there is a bolt at the rear mounting point, if you remove tho the tank just lifts out of the bike, the fuel line is on a quick coupling and there are 2 block connectors for the pump and gauge.

OK, thanks ekdg. I wondered if it just tilted out of the way like on some gixxers.

ye it looks like a hinge at the back like a gixxer ,but it wont pivot.
you have to unbolt everything and lift,poor design really.
