gas tank intall



It's pretty easy, actually. Just drop the rear beam,
pull a couple bolts holding the gas tank, and pull off
the hoses. RB: "Installation is the reverse of
removal". HEhe.

A couple points:
- pulling the whole rear beam only involves two more
bolts than lowering it: the lower (or upper) shock
mounts. Yes, Virginia, you'll probably have to pull
the brake lines. Still, that's only six bolts and two
brake lines. It's time to bleed your brakes anyway. :)

- if your gas tank doesn't have exactly the same
number/type of breather fittings, you're on your own!
I haven't reconnected mine yet, and I'm not sure what
I'll do.
