Fuel Tank Removal

@Rocket Scientist Wait, do I have to take the pin at the bottom of the tank out if I'm just propping it? Or will that make it unstable? it seems that might act as a pivot point if I leave it in?
 
Can you prop the tank up when the bike is on the kickstand, or does it need to be on a center stand or lift so that it doesn't lean to the left?
 
i think that u could use the prop anyway even if the tires was up in the air
of coarse then u probably would not need the prop

Haha, you'd be surprised, I had a hell of a time figuring out how to pull the tank on my Touring, I felt like a moron, I mean, it's my bike and I'd owned it years. Luckily my buddy, a life long MC mechanic was there, and... he was stumped too, LOL, We figured it out eventually.
