Removing Gas tank {WITHOUT} emptying it (09' Ninja 650r)

Gas tank removal, Kawasaki, Honda, Suzuki, Yamaha, Triumph, Harley Davidson. These steps are pretty similar in all the other brands I just mentioned, there just maybe a few extra steps or different type of bolts used for it. In this Video I show you the steps on taking off the gas tank for a 2009 Kawasaki Ninja 650r. I hope you Enjoy.

This is the only video I've seen that shows all the steps in this process, thanks!

[@belizeanaction]

Including turning the tank bolt wrong direction first then loosen it

[@neilmercier2833]

I have to say u did a great job showing the details

[@motcycrev9902]

Thank you so much! This is one of the first videos I actually thought about before I recorded! Have a good day my man!

My lord and saviour!! I need to access my spark plugs but I had no idea you could just lift it off. For some reason I though it'd drain all the way if I took it off.

[@mikkuzi]

Had to change relay box under gas tank because regulator broke/shortcutted. thanks for making this video!

[@RapidRossi]

Lol same

[@philiptiong2577]

Only video I can find. Really helpful. Appreciate it

[@Ihavetoomanyvolvos]

I had an old carbureted sport bike I had to change the petcock on, so I was expecting it to just dump fuel everywhere as soon as the line was disconnected. Very happy to know that I won’t need to drain my tank on my new bike.

[@9000256]

Thanks, tank looks exactly the same on my Kawasaki ER6N 2007.

[@Steen6319]

Thanks :)

[@danbell8025]

Silly question but I am a complete novice... what was the black tube connected too... I have a ticking sound on my bike and need to change the spark plug just to see if it has a faulty connection... I have to add it has died a couple of times at traffic lights too

[@MRCYMN]

AMAZING

[@filoIII]

Just bought an '09 Versys, and the sucker stalls when twisting throttle, but will catch and take off. All gears.

[@michaelr32884]

Did you figure out the issue ? Mine was literally doing the same and just found out today its because of a bad fuel pump and bad injectors caused by rust in the gas tank. Hopefully that fixes my problem

[@angell6425]

This video was so helpful!!!! Is it normal for the bit that spits out gas to keep leaking? I pulled the red tab as you said and when I pulled it off it did squirt gas but kept going until I turned it on its side

[@JoeGz]

Red tab was so old on mine it flew off now my gas leaks whats the name of the tab? So i can probably get another or do i have to replace the whole tube

[@angell6425]

@@JoeGz I have no idea. I think my fuel pump needs to be replaced because it's not normal for it to leak out gas like that. should be just like the video

[@willkoenen1370]

What exhaust u got on there?

[@gustav901]

Currently trying to get my white connector apart, seems by this video that mine is just stuck on

[@djfrankfrancis]

pull up on the tab instead of pushing

[@BlueElitefromHaloCE]

Was it the spark plugs? Just got this issue today. Of course the bike started up just fine at home but once I got off work this began lol

[@motcycrev9902]

+HUNK It ended up being 2 sensors, well thats what the shop told me. It was the tip over sensor and a sensor inside the actual engine. (said they changed the tip over one because they had a spare sitting around, not really sure).

[@paulosantiago4046]

@@motcycrev9902 what sensor inside the engine? how long did that take them to do?

[@CarlosRodriguez-ej8ic]

so what was the issue...was it the fuel pump or spark plug or air filter...im having like the exact same problem

[@motcycrev9902]

It ended up being some type of sensor/relay. I dropped it off at a shop and they sort of “figured it out” but never told me what they did.(This was after waiting for 8-9 weeks). They went out of business shortly after.
