Mine has a drain plug on the bottom of the tank.
If you have stock exhaust you'll need to remove mufflers to get to drain plug. Siphoning works fine.

I have the kerker pipes. Should prob just get off my lazy butt and go look.

The COOLEST way is to use a wetvac. You could use the air exhaust as a flame thrower.

got it drained. flipped to reserve and the pump went bonkers. how tight should that drain plug be? when tightening it, it seemed like it wanted to go more, but i really felt like i was pushing it.

I thought the BEST way to drain the fuel tank was 100 miles of riding

I siphoned mine. Took some time to get it all out since I used a small diameter tubing but it worked well and was not messy at all.

Yes I do!
Scared the shit out of me too. I knew it was risky, don't think I just snatched it up, plugged it in and started sucking gas out of my tank...wait...that's exactly what I did. Lol

I used this pump on the max and other bikes. Works great and pumps fast.

But at least you can say you have invented something! :flamethrower:
