That's the way I always do it. Just remember there is no fuel shut-off.
Prop the tank up using a string tied to the helmet strap. This works well enough so you don't spill any fuel.

RE: changing spark plugs

yep, hang the tank up carefully and take your whole airbox off... make sure not to over tighten!

RE: changing spark plugs

I did my plugs the first time while I had the tank off to be changed. Man after that I can't imagine why anybody would wanna do it from the front. ( 'Course, I feel that way about a LOT of stuff ...lol)
