Ordered the termi carbon pipes and ecu/air filter, I shouldn't have a problem with puttin the cans on, but not sure about the ecu.

Can anyone tell me if it will be easy to do? and any tips.

cheers

putting the filter and ecu unit in is a doddle,u just have to take the tank off 1st. when you get the tank off its all self explanatry.

Getting the tank off is a bit of a faff though, isn't it?

Yeah, but it's guesswork as to which bolts you have to remove to get the cover off, and there's dozens of the little buggers! I must have guessed unwisely...!

There`s 2 That Fasten It To The Frame On Each Side And 1 That Goes Thru The Middle Underneath.

I take it you mean the actual tank when the covers are off? That's the easy bit!

Thats what you said the tank,not the tank covers.
The tank covers are easy aswell 10min job.bolts over the top ,2 on the side and 2 under seat ,slide back and hey presto...off:rolleyes:

Follow the air tubes - they feed into the airfilter housing.

erm, are you sure you should be doing this on your own - might be worth getting someone who knows their way round a bike to help out?

directly behind the ignition barrel is the airfilter. u have to inscrew about 3 screws if i can remember.
then u lift the plastic casing off to reveal airbox.
