Had to take the tank off the bike gsa 2008 today long story...
But now I can't get the mounting bolt on the left hand side to line up.
The tank will not going any further forward so it's not lining up with the captive nut behind
Can't see anything that's stopping it
Driving me bonkers
Any ideas??

Tanka back in place
Think issue was the weight of fuel in the tank was deforming the tank from lining up with the fixing holes.
Rachet strap used to pull it back into place
Would have been easier with two pairs of hands really.

I had the same issue with my 2010 TC... thought I needed to move the tank to get the air filter out ... took me ages to get it back again :rob
