remove gas tank - video

After combing the internet for years, it appears somebody finally posted a video of someone dropping a tank.

Actual video of the tank coming out.

Appears to have been posted summer of 2017.

I'm currently going through this process right now. It's really not that bad! Just got the replacement tank today and I'll be putting everything back together this week.

It kills me how people will fight with trying to drop the tank without removing parts that otherwise are in the way. Removing the catback, and getting the axle out of the way takes minutes and makes it so much easier.
