I will take pics, but not for a while, can't be bothered to undo two screws to just show someone.

And no, it is not just in the tank, thats my point. You think it is, but its the air filter underneath in a black box.

The fuel goes in, and is carried down the bike. The tank, is just a lid basically. Believe me, I did it yesterday and I'm not stupid.

Look closer at things before telling people who know more than you that they are wrong... just IMO.

If you look closer you will see that alloy "bag" thing is just a heat shield held onto the bottom of the tank by some little bent clips.

The tank is steel and holds all the fuel.
Inside tank there is a fuel pump which supplies fuel under pressure via a pipe to some throttle bodies.
The airbox does not hold any fuel, it is just a housing to filter and direct air to the throttle bodies.
In the throttle bodies the injectors spray fuel into the air stream to atomise it, it is then burnt in the engine.

Go on howstuffworks then take another look, or go buy a manual.
