I see they wish t sell us a spigot for a better word. But I've read some place the guys at the dealership don't even use this tool.... they have a " trick " of sorts

any thoughts please . . . . . .

Didn't know there was a "trick" to it..... I just ride till the tank is down to under half, which then I can manage by myself... Preferable to be round 1/4 or less, but as I said I do not have any problems with it even at round 1/2 a tank......

Witchdoctor has a good video on his vendor site showing tank removal and filter cleaning. Check it out. In the video, only a tiny amount of gas leaks. Don't think it is like old school gas tanks.

If it's just to remove the tank use the WD method mentioned above. I have done it with a nearly full tank but prefer less weight. I have the process down to just over 3 minutes by myself including getting the seat off (timed). Be sure and stick a rag under the rubber tank grommets so they do not go down the hole in the frame.
