Does the gas not come out when I disconnect the fuel line?
You'll need to remove the seats so you can get to the rear tank mount. Remove rear and front bolts holding the tank on. Then you need to carefully lift it from the back and disconnect the fuel line and electrical connectors. While not necessary to drain the tank it makes it much easier to remove it if it's nearly empty. Gasoline weighs about 6 lbs/gal.
To get to the throttle and clutch cables, do you have to fully remove the tank?
Thanks...but that sucks.
Thanks. I'm pretty sure I'm looking at new throttle and clutch cables give the type of bars I plan on putting on. But it doesn't look like removing the tank is that huge a deal either.
When you're ready to disconnect, wrap a rag around it before pulling the hose off. Good time to check the fuel line for kinks and replace it with the EFI fuel line mod.
Fuel line mod?
So if you have a Gen 2, no issue, right?
Wow, so Yamaha doesn't use a FI rated hose on a bike with FI?
