Hi Neil

Im not 100% sure but if you remove the tank guard you will see the fixing's for securing the tank...I dont think the guard is aatached to the fuel tank itself..

Cheers Gav

its 4 bolts.
size 14mm

2 at the front and 2 at the rear.
tank guard and tank are fixed using the same bolts.

only takes half hour to replace a tank.
