Tiger 800 - Fuel tank removal

I absolutely couldn't remove the brown connector or fuel line so I ended up opening the airbox with the fuel tank sitting on my head

Many thanks just got my tiger 800 finding all your posts excellent. Cheers

Nice bike and nice video - duly subbed!

Hi Muddy, really good, clear video both in terms of vid quality and clarity of explanation.  I am sure Tiger owners eveywhere will appreciate seeing more of your creative talents.  Good work.

Great work! Thank you so so so much for posting.

good to know greetings from belgium

Tiger 1200 Explorer  - Fuel tank removal ?

Good video!Very helpful not having to figure it all out myself.Saved me a lot of time,I reckon.Thanks :)

thanx for sharing!

do you need to empty the tank before removing the 2 hoses/tubes?

Hi, thanks for the great video - helped me very much :)

Thanks for posting!

Hi Muddy. Any chance on getting an update on this video for the 2016 xca model? It seems the side covers are not the same as in this video. Thanks for the great posts!!

Thanks for all the Tiger 800 vids. Very handy.

Thanks for all your posts 😊do you need to empty tank first ?

Thanks mate you're a star

My fuel gauge does not work and my fuel light is constantly on. I've read about one gentleman who had a similar problem after installing an aftermarket clutch lever. Any thoughts on where to start? 2011 Triumph Tiger 800, USA

Thanks for all of the videos. They help a lot!

Mr. Sump, do you still ride your Tiger? I see the newer DRZ vids and hope you weren't ignoring your cat. And thank you very much for the great tutorials! I needed to get my air box off because a mouse loaded it up with bird seed.

This was a PERFECT walk-through for installing the Tiger 800 Tank Bag Harness. Thank you!

Cheers, saves me looking for it when I change the air filter a long way in the future 👍🏻

Much better than a Haynes manual cheers
Can you tell me what make of tomtom sat nav mount that is and where you can buy from

great now I can access my stupid stepper motor when it stalls my bike on the trail!

just finished with the tank removal and replacement. Goal was to clean out the air filter. What a straightforward and precise video. awesome, super thanks.

I have a Tiger 800 and the first thing I did was to get rid of that STUPID LOOKING BEAK.I makes the bike look like a poor mans BMW.

Nice video thank you you saved me a headache

Thanks sold my bmw GS for a tiger 800 love it .

Really nice video. Thank you, Man.

this was super helpful for removing (and reinstalling) my tank for painting. thanks, man!!!

Looks like right angle drill would speed this up big time

Thank you for this mate, Much Appreciated...

Great video, convinced me to let the mechanic take care of this

Its not that easy haha. it took me ages.

It was my dream for 25 years to have a motorcycle . I had a few dirt bikes as a teen but they were a bit rough and didn't run consistently lol. Anyway i my wife got me a 2012 tiger 800 xc and it has a lot of added stuffs ....all of the things I would have wanted on web sites I saw . like the bike was made for me lol! The bike has 21 000 miles and seems to be in good shape and sounds good too . then again I'm not sure what exactly I should be looking for as far as I want to live . Again your videos are so good and thank you so much !

I hope I'm not bothering you with the questions ...if so please let me know and no hard feelings here . I understand being buissy . my question is first ...do I need to fully drain the fuel tank ? Second on the coolant change is there a better alternative or cheap safe alternative coolant ? Thank you again for your videos !

Your bike is immaculate!

Thanks these are a nightmare to remove and put back together? My suzuki bandit 1250 was really easy 2 10 mil bolts 🔩 easy. Thanks 😊

Simple straight forward do this then that, you bloody legend fella these vids of yours are golden!

Thank you so much for sharing.

Just want to say thanks from the US. This was very helpful. Just changed out the air filter and spark plugs myself for the first time on a new to me Tiger.

Really good and informative video 👍

Hi there mate. Your vids have come in really useful, allowing me to service my tiger 800 myself... Just wondered if you could put a vid on showing how to remove and replace the rear indicators on the Tiger 800. I've looked everywhere and can't find anything to help. Cheers.

I like your tutorials a lot. Only to bad the sound isn´t so good. I can barely understand what you say. A new voice-over would be recommended.

The tank must be empty ?
or is indifferent ?
The fuel does not spill ?

I've been following your videos to do my valves. Super helpful! Thank you. We have the exact same bike. (Badass black😁) I'd love to know where you got that little 1/4" extension. It looks great, with a swivel ball at one end to avoid using a separate angle adapter which can mess with your torque specs, and I like the gnarled surface so you can use by hand too. Haven't been able to find anything like it here in Canada. Sometimes the smallest tools like this can be huge when you're working on the bike.

Hey there. Can you tell me if this is the same for a 2015 model?

As always great videos with clear instructions and tool sizes! Thank you!

Muddy, you're a champ! Thanks for making all the repair videos.

Excellent presentation, clear, consise & coherrant....
