SV1000s How do you lift the tank?

My sv650 curvey easy
My sv650 pointy easy
My sv1000 pointy ????

Will not lift up? I want to check spark plugs and fit a lighter socket wire on the inside of the frame?

Looks the same as a 650 tank but cant work out how to do it?

its the same as the 650 pointy.

I sincerely hope you are not being serious there.......

If you are then this is what you do:

1. Put the tools down,
2. Take one step back from the SV
3. Raise your hand
4. Slap yourself in the head!!!!!!!

LOL @ Amanda

remove plastic infill panels under seat(1 bolt each side) remove seat 1( bolt each side) , remove tank top bolts, prop up and jobs a guden

If it is the same as the 650, as barwell says. I hope you're not trying to rag the tank up with the seat in place!

unless the hinge has rusted solid it should just flip up, but i doubt that i would rust lol,
