Hello everybody! I'm new here… and I'm writing from Italy! Today, I was trying to adjust my SM 630 throttle cable, so I took the user manual and read the instructions: they seemed easy. I've followed the intructions, but actually no way to remove the tank! I've seen that there are also many other pieces connected to the tank (plastics, maybe radiators) and so, perhaps, I should remove them. Any suggestions? What else should I do to remove the tank and adjust the cable? Thanks, Guido
There are adjusters on the grip end of the cable too. The plastic boots covering them are visible in the first photo .
Removing the fuel tank is super easy. Leave the side covers on the fuel tank, no need to remove them. Only bolts you need to remove are #29, behind the little 630 covers. Screw shut the fuel taps and remove at least one side of the cross over line. Remove your seat and side covers and remove the fuel pump plug and hose fitting from the front left of the tank. When you have the tank off, remove the little screw under part #31 in the pic. If it isn't removed already. It will open up the drain port from the filler neck.
