What he ^ said. That screen looks like a used coffee filter from some "greasy spoon" resturant.

Tank removal?
First use up all the gas you can.
A light tank is easier to handle.
If you don't have the plugs (like my bike didn't) then golf tee's will work to plug the two hoses.
If your low on gas that will help reduce any spillage.
Take the battery out - I'm assuming you have a Gen I.
Then unbolt the 2 bolts that face downward and take the whole hinge assembly off.
This is easier then trying to get the 4 bolts on the hinge off.
That is about it for tank removal.
I did a post a few years back on the whole process of taking the pump apart and even cleaning the injectors off.
Hope that helps

Nice images, thanx for sharing! I think I'll do the same to my bike this week 
actually i only had to take off the seat...if you lower the tank you can reach the tank assembly bolts with a extension no issues...

took cans of carb cleaner and with the small hose sprayed the crap out of it both directons of the screen. not white but not clogged either now
Chris is right there...I had my 2000 busa apart so many times it wasn't funny.That was 10+ years ago when we were just making and sharing these how-to's.
If you want to take the tank off for any reason...
Grab a 5 dollar squeeze pump from yer local parts store,then you can just pump 98% of the fuel into a white bucket (the white makes it easy to see if there is any crap in the fuel/tank). One or 2 pumps and then the siphon action takes over.

you mean that plastic thing that is the "filter"... its sealed at the top with something or just melted together...and ebay started for used ones 150 and up to 600 for new ....dont you think they could have made a simpler set up??
Aftermarket fuel pumps from companies like Bosch for cheap on ebay and elsewhere if wanted. Just have to make sure it pumps at the same volume as a stocker,and there is a test for that.A few folks on here have installed them instead of paying suzuki's redic price.

This is why you should replace the filter. Not much filter medium there. I will replace mine every 25000 miles or so.

Bosch 69420 is higher volume replacement. Local all i found was over $200 Got one on amazon next day shipping for $90. It is however not a direct bolt in, takes some simple modifications

Dude you need a manicure, maybe some of those French tips or some artwork.

Those are workin' man's mitts. I can tell because mine are neat and tidy with a light buff.
