Anyone done this?? I've got my new tank so I can complete the change from red to black and looking for a 'How to..' before I go and make a complete bo77ockx of it.... I thought I had seen some instructions on here somewhere before but can't find them any more :dowhat....any advice or instruction gratefully received!!!:confused

Easy mate:
Remove 2 bolts at front of tank
Tilt tank back and support using stand under your seat
Disconnect fuel pump elec plug
Disconnect 2 drain hoses from bottom of tank
Disconnect fuel line from RH side of throttle body (fuel will come out of this so get a jerry can ready to collect fuel)
Disconnect quick release coupling on LH side of tank
When tank is empty remove the tank rear support bracket
Remove tank

On install use two new copper washers on the banjo bolt. Saves alot of hassel for a few pence
