How do you remove the gas tank from the tw200 2003. I have got the bolts that held it closer to the back but i cant figure out how to undue the front.
There are two seat bolts under the seat that must be removed.
Obviously, if the underside of the fender is covered in mud, you'll
have to clean it first. A metric socket works best to remove the bolts.
After
removal of the seat bolts, lift the back of the seat, then pull
straight back; a plastic flange on the front of the seat hooks under
the tank, and so you have to pull it backwards to remove it.
With
the seat off, removing the battery is pretty easy. A rubber strap holds
the battery down; unhook and remove it. Unscrew the lead wires and
unhook them (negative first), then pull the battery out.
Install a replacement battery by reversing these steps. Yamaha recommends charging a new battery before installing it.
