Lifting fuel tank
#8
I find that the tank won't go more than 45degrees without putting pressure on the long bolt mounting - but by that stage it's pulling on the fuel level wire which needs to be unconnected.

If I need it to stay up whilst I work I attach a strong bungee chord to the front bolt hole of the tank and strap it back to near where the tool kit is kept under the seat, and also attach a weak bungee from the front bolt hole to the front of the bike to stop it twisting over and spilling fuel out of the top.
#Driven by the irony that only being shackled to the road could ever I be free.#
