this is a very dumb question most likely, but i need to remove my tank and empty gas in order to deal with the rust on the inside of the tank...ive researched some things on gettting rust off and coating the inside, but nothing on how to simply remove the gas before you dismount the tank, ha...i know its probably simple, but this is my first bike so even simple is unknown...

thanks :doh::banghead:
 
hey man welcome to the forum, lots to learn here. just turn the petcock(s) off, take the tank off and then opening the lid and petcock and let it drain.
 
You can even do it without removing the tank by connect a long piece of fuel line to the petcock(s) and draining it straight into your fuel can
