Just wondering how the tank on a 1150gs is fitted? what are it's fixings/mountings like?
Much appreciation to your oily-heads

Mind you dont trap the pipes when putting it back and the Throttle cables are seated correctly in the Throttle-boddies !

1100 to 1150

Is it true that the mounts on the 1150 differ from the 1100, so the tanks are not interchangable ?

I think the mouints are the same, but the beak plastics don't match up, leaving a gap. Look for Rob Farmers thread on the subject.
