...........i'm also a novice, but i've had problems with my carb. & have taken off the tank so many times, i think i could do it blindfolded!!!!....first turn your petrol tap to off & unscrew the jubilee clip which holds the hose.then unscrew the allen bolt at the front of the tank ( you unscrew this to put 2 stroke oil in).. to the rear seat on the plastics you have 2 studs, 1 each side of the bike...remove these with an allen key.....now very carefully ease the plastic covers which go along the side of the bike....there are 2 rubber bungs, 1 each side near to the tank which need to be pulled away from the bike frame...when you've done this you will see a bolt at the end of the tank, (at the start of the seat), this bolt needs to be removed....the tank can now be removed.....you can now see the air filter. and the carb.....hopefully you can screw the jubilee clips up ....if you need to alter the position of the carb/filter you may need to remove the filter to reposition it correctly this is held in place with a bolt each side of the filter.....unscrew these 2 bolts, and unsrew the jubilee clip which holds the filter to the carb....... then lift off a black rubber bung (something to do with the electrics) which is at the back of the filter... unclip the breather pipe under the filter (this pipe is blue on my bike).....the filter can now be removed and cleaned , then repositioned correctly...............its straight forward, and to be honest its stuff which you need to do ,to build your confidence up.....do it tomorrow morning........just before going to your place of worship!!!

i will correct you schedule :
- turn tap off , take seat off , undo your allen bolt and lift tank on it's stand
- untighten loosely the collar at the tap tank and pull out the rubber pipe
- unplug the backside fairings to give you a bit of room
- with 2 flat spanner size 10 remain the bolt axis tank (if not enough room , undo the special bolts on each side in the middle of back side fairings , i can do it without)
- take off tank and mind washers and rubbers
- untighten loosely the collar at the junction carb air box underneath at the back (a 8" long phillips screwdriver will do)
- pull the blue pipe underneath at the front (air box)
- undo one bolt (pipe spanner 10) on each side and take box out
all this must not take more than 10 mn
