    Do I have to split the lower cowl to remove the oil tank? Factory service manual says - disconnect sensor and oil line, remove 2 bolts, remove tank. Seems like not enough room to to clear intake boot.

    Took off right side lower cowl, tank came right off. Reeds looked like new, cages took some honing w 2000 grit wet dry. New CCR reeds in, intake on, waiting for the boot and clamp to arrive for behind throttle body. Original one was folded when installed and clamp.
