Well, it can be done with gas in the tank, but then it depends on how much gas, and how willing you are to lay the bike down on its right side.

Either drain the gas tank, or remove the tank from the bike and tilt it forward. Its one or the other.

BC.


I didn't do it, I swear.
And even if I did, what makes you think I would admit it to you?
hey bladecutter, have you replaced one then?
