I've watched a few YouTube videos now on doing these older circa 2002-3 VFRs showing generous ease of access with the tank coming up over 45 degrees.
My '14 moves maybe 3 inches up without restrictions, just enough to see the flapper.
Is there enough improvement to justify attempting these and what is involved to free up the tank?
The prev owner had the VIP maintenance contract and documentation shows that the air filter was changed out at roughly 4 and 8k, though the 2 bolts at the rear of the tank let out that distinctive snap breaking them loose as if perhaps they had never prev been touched from the factory.
I only experience a minor stumble revving up from the bottom. At this point I probably will do the mods to see for myself the differences, particularly now than the bike has 23k+ on it
