take of seat & pull off plastic cover under right side of tank.
undo the 2 breather hoses at the in-line joins behind rear of tank on the right
undo the flat black multi way electrical connector under tank on the right
undo & remove the nearby M8 socket (allen) headed bolt, again nearby. grovel on floor to find the loose nut (WHY LOOSE FFS???) which has fallen off the other end.
undo the 2 quick release fuel line connectors in similar location if you have them. if not, undo clamps & pull off hoses from stiff plastic pipes where they appear from behind a plastic cover.
lift tank back & up to remove. realise that you should have found somewhere to put it down first
