Once the throttle bodies come off where do I hang them? Anything that I have to specially careful about there?

I don't normally do this but I took both hands off the bars to adjust my helmet whilst doing 70kph & the handlebars started wobbling from side to side gradually getting more violent.
I tried it at a few different speeds & it only seems to do it below 75kph. It's fine at 100kph.
The bike is a...
Well I installed a new slip on and it appeared to be running good at first. Then I noticed a lot of decel popping and it seemed to be a little sluggish. Didn't notice it at first and thought it was my imagination that it was getting worse. Well I go to fill up this morning and could barely pry...

Looking for a "like new" fuel tank that will fit a 2007 R3 Classic. Don't mind a few scratches; just don't want any dents. Would prefer not to have to pay for a brand new one.
I am trying too get my hands on a tank bra for my rocket 3 Classic, triumph don`t make them anymore I am told. I have found a few websites that sell there own made ones but I`m not keen on the look of them. I would like something as close to the original as possible.
Any ideas on where to source...
I know what is in the Triumph Manual.
But has anybody actually measured it themselves?
Is it 23L (whatever) from the plate in the filler - or right to the brim? - Because my guess is there is a good litre or more between plate and brim.
Other than draining completely - I can't think of a way...
Does anyone have a pic handy of the 'under-tank' area of a std/classic model?
Something like this (which is Roadster) but need one of the older generation
(the alarm connector is what is circled incidentally)
How complicated is it to swap from a standard Roadster/Classic tank to fit a Touring tank with the associated instruments as well?

While at Rolling Thunder this last May, I met a vender from Evansville, In, Old Jim Customs. Of course they were moving Harley products but we chatted about the Rocket and the oil tank. They have many designs they are able to use and they said they could easily make something. So, back home and...
Is the oil tank connected in such a way that it can be moved without spilling oil everywhere, or does the process of moving it even a little require draining the oil ?
If you must know, the instructions for the RamAir kit are explicit . . . to put a cloth in that gap when working, and I did...
Anyone ever use an auxiliary fuel tank on thier Rock?
I ask because I’m working on a custom luggage rack/back rest and thought I might add an extra set of threaded holes to mount an auxiliary fuel tank before I go to powder coat.
Maybe something like this.

Okay so I had no problem with the bike yesterday on a 400 mile trip, this morning I went to get on it for work and made it about a mile down the rode when the oil dipstick was pushed out and oil started dumping down my leg. I didn't touch the dipstick this morning to even check it, I know...

Hi Guys.
