ham2 Posted April 1, 2006 Report Share Posted April 1, 2006 Dear Beta people, Can you help please.. I am trying to remove the petrol tank on my 06 REV3 250cc (just got it today). I am struggling to get it off..is there a special tool or technique I need to use. Any replies welcome Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
racee Posted April 1, 2006 Report Share Posted April 1, 2006 Quite simple really, remove both wheels, swing arm, forks, yokes, handlebars, rear mudguard, airbox, exhaust and engine. Then you'll be left holding the petrol tank. Hope this helps. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sideup Posted April 1, 2006 Report Share Posted April 1, 2006 It is a tough one, but it can be done. Go to your local hardware store, buy a pocket full of hacksaw blades. Puttin it back is where the problem will come in to play. BTW - not recommended to ride test bike with tank removed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ham2 Posted April 1, 2006 Author Report Share Posted April 1, 2006 That's the spirit lads I can only assume from the few genuine replies that most of the Beta riders are in their garages now,weighing up their response before committing to type. Enjoy the rest of your weekend.. Harrow Bank( Death Valley!) for me tomorrow..then again.. maybe not. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
