Hey man, great video. Can you tell me what this metal bar is called that is holding up your tank? Trying to buy one just can't figure out what it is called....
thanks buddy...ok jump on ebay and try type in "gsxr fuel tank rod" or variations of tank rod with tank prop or tank chock. someone will have one somewhere.
Weird question, I pulled my tank and forgot to pull off the 2 vacuum lines that are not in the pump and accidentally pulled them completely out. Do you know where they go?
Are you talking about @3:28 ? those two hoses? i think they are just breather/ overflow hoses as i took my used bike apart mines don't even have them . bikes been riding fine
odd question, when i removed my tank and disconected it, it didnt really leak any gas, and the tank is full, it would lose some gas if i shake it but i had no gas dripping out of it otherwise, is that normal or have i found the reson the bike wont work
If you shake it where does it leak? From the house that you disconnected? Check the line is clear, not sure how but always check for kinks in lines, best to always eliminate the small/easy/cheap things first!
Gunslinger i disconnected the hoses from the tank, its an 2001 gsxr 600, so right now there are no hoses attached to the tank, but it doesnt really leak at all and thats what i was wondering about because everything i have every worked on when you detach the tank or hoses the gas will flow freely out of it but that doesnt happen with this tank, should i empty it and just give it a really good clean, or is it supposed to not lose any gas when disconnected
@@sarahhoffman322 oh I get you now. No it is a valve that when seated with its pair will open up. The leaking gas I talk about is a small amount 20-30ml that is left in the line..but keep in mind this is an 08..not sure if the 01 is different..
@@gunslingervr4959 yes theyre connected right. I never disconnected anything. Just lifted the tank. I saw the hoses looked pinched so i straightened them out. Thats about it
Why doesn’t anyone show how to remove that wire to take the tank off
That was actually a very clear helpful video! Thank u for the service to all of us clapped gsxr riders
Looks like this would also basically apply to 06 and 07 gsxr as well
Thank you so much, it was really valuable video.
Thank you your video really help me fix my bike
Where do those breather tubes connect to the 2 ones connect to the tank
Nice one mate
Awesome vid, so helpful, thanks bud!
I wish I could figure out what size those two bolts are bc I’m missing mine since I bought the bike with a rusty tank and I’m trying to put it back on
The plastics on the side of the take are removable!!!! You’re gonna snap those plastics if you leave them on like he did
The small hose connected to the long air lines I disconnected it and forgot where it goes

Trying to replace the tank on my 2016 gsxs 750 but can’t find any videos on it. Is the process similar at all?
should be the same if not similar. this bike was an 2008
Did you drain the gas? Before removing??
No, the tank has a valve so once disconnect won't flow freely
At 3:28 those 2 tubes whats are they called & are connected to anything underneath or free hanging?
been a while but pretty sure just breather hoses...

Did you ever figure it out? I did the same thing
@@nickherron2219 I think there is a few breather hoses from memory, sold my bike a while back so unsure

I lifted my tank and now it wont stop leaking gas from the bigger overflow hose. Nonstop leaking.
check they're connected correctly and you haven't mistaken the overflow with the fuel line

How do you drain the gas?
troy demers was a while ago but either fuel lines from the bottom or once the tank is off, put the tank upside down
Get a plumber's siphon, how I drained mine. Auto parts store or in my case, Amazon.
