I have a MY00 classic and the fuel filler pipe at the back is leaking heavily at the bottom of the bend.

The previous owner has tried to do a patch repair on it but its failed and theres sealant stuff all over the pipe.

How hard is it to get the pipe off the tank? I can see where it mounts and routes through the rear arch but cant see where it attaches to the tank.

If anyone knows of a good repair or how easy it is to replace please let me know, if theres a 2nd hand one around i'm all ears as I can get it and protect it 1st before installing.

excellent, so its accessable from just over the rear driveshafts? what holds it onto the tank neck, just a jubilee clip?

 

Jubilee clip at the tank and three screws by the filling hole. The three screws will be a pain to remove so i suggest soaking them with wd40 first.
