Taking the tank off is easy:
Bars off first (as Uber suggest, tie wrap these out of the way - I use the top bar around the clocks)
Remove seat
Remove rear retaining plate
Remove screen, front indicator panels and tank side panels
Remove the two plastic parts the side panels screw to - important to get the tank to lift!!
Remove the two main tank mount bolts
Remove overflow pipe from left lower side
Lift rear of tank and pull back slightly
Unclip two electrical connectors (push tab in and pull apart)
Remove fuel connector security clip
Undo fuel pipe (push tab and pull apart
Prepare area to place tank with protection
Remove tank and place right way up on a flat surface.

You do need to re route the cables and check the throttle returns on both full locks.
Adjust cables free play as necessary.

Fitting is the reverse of removal as they say.
