Fuel tank cover

Hi guys. Don't know what it's called it is the plate that hides the fuel tank.
My question is. Can I remove this without the tank falling off.
Is there some bolts holding the tank on as well, and this just acts to protect it. I do have half a quarter on the gauge or 1/8 of fuel left
Thank you
Mike

Faulksy: You need to empty the tank as much as possible, then you can loosen the bolts that hold the cradle and then you can slip some ratchet straps underneath the tank, and use the frame to hold the tank up while you drop the cradle itself.
