I haven't removed the tank on this bike yet but looks like the same process as the Hawk. Shut the gas off at the petcock. That will be in the middle position. Disconnect the fuel line. Once you have the fairing removed there is a single bolt at the rear of the tank. Lift the tank up from the rear and disconnect the fuel sending unit. You should be able to lift it up and off after that. I'm not sure if the fuel over flow is connected to anything that I could see but sure you will know when you do. lol I don't know if you are planning to install an oil cooler or not but that would be the best time to do this while you have it all apart. I didn't remove my tank because I wasn't thinking and fill my tank full.
