Need help to take off the fuel tank covers on my VFR. I have undone all the clips and screws on the tank cover. However, there's one piece left and want to be very sure how to undo it before attempting so as not to break anything. I have attached a picture to indicate the point. Appreciate the help.

When I put my new K&N air filter into my 6th gen and torqued down the bolts at the front of the fuel tank i noticed a slight wobble of the tank side to side. It may have been there before but i certainly hadn't noticed. now i'm a tad annoyed by it. It's clearly due to the clearances of the through bolt at the rear of the tank around which it pivots when you raise the tank. I am wondering if you guys experience this too? if so does it bother you as much as me? and how would i go about fixing it? every bolt on the tank assembly is torqued to spec.

Hi gents. Im refurbishing a much neglected 94 VFR750. Mostly complete. Before i got stuck into it and pulled it all apart to service i noticed it had tank wobble and would rock when you put pressure on it mostly the the left hand side. pretty noticible rock too. I'd forgotten about it till now when its been time to fit the tank back on. Its secure , its not going anywhere, it just annoys me and I dont think it came out of the Honda factory with that wobble at all. Ive pulled the tank back off and had a look and my question is did the tank have black rubber clips/stabilisers? I flipped the tank over and found a small square black strip of thin foam rubber glued to one side and on the other side the glue residue and the black piece missing. but it was stuck on the silver bike frame. from having a bit of a look on Ebay at tanks i can see some of them have like black rubber clips (which would make sense) My guess is previous owner has lost those clips at some point and has glued bits of foam on to attempt to stop the rock. And one of those bits has slipped of and restuck to the frame. idk heres some pics love to hear your experience or opinions on this cheers Metalicr (Ben)
