you remove the tank. if you dont have a gravity bottle get a chunk of 1/4 inch gas line and a double end barbed deal from the auto parts store. set the tank up on the bench higher than the bike and measure how much youll need. ON the back of carb 2 where the petcock vacuum line goes put a small piece of vac line on that and plug with a bolt. Use barbed adapter to plug the gas line into the one on the carbs. Set petcock on the PRIme position so fuel will flow...sync carbs.

NEVER SNEAK UP ON A SLEEPING DOG..NOT EVEN YOUR OWN.
I would rather trust my bike to a "QUACK" that KNOWS how to fix it rather than a book worm that THINKS HE KNOWS how to fix it.
