4 bolts.

One in the front 2 on the sides, then the one under the seat.

unhook the fuel line and the plug from the harness. You won't spill much fuel.

No problem just got through taken mine off again yesterday. I've never drained mine though it may be time consuming because of the pump.

Grab some Vice Grips... unbolt the top two bolts and then loosen the back bolts. Tip up the tank and clamp the lines with a set of vice grips. Once they are clamped, unbolt everything.. take it wherever and drain it.

Bam, done!
