I got cold and wet. In my '99 I had to pull the DS tire, remove the inner plastic fender and remove the two 5/16" screws from the engine side of the fender. Ya get to the front screw between the airbox and front frame. Had to pop loose the headlight harness for straight on access. Then you reach under and up to the reservoir with your right hand and use a small screwdriver to "pop up" the front tab of the tank. Slide it forward a scoch and pull the filler neck out from its rubber grommet. At this point I get wet feet and slide my bucket over. Slide down to the left and out. The "bottom" pump is the front one. Mine was full and soaked the floor, my foot, my right leg, and barely caught half of it. If I had to do it again I'd pop one of the outputs off and wait for it to drain first. Had a time crunch.

Coherent sentences are becoming more challenging.

It took my up the mountain so the light pollution wasn't quite as bad. Couldn't get any pics of the target, so I played a little.

It'll be for when the seat back is up (clear bottom half), but a full divider is easy to build too. If you are interested, let me know. I can sketch up a concept. In many ways, the full divider is easier.

I like it. Probably not everyone would want to deal with the BS that comes from random people (at least where i live...I had a lime green 11 sec IROC
with a similar design in the center of the bumper and used to get hell when i street drove it. But I loved it
