If you have a carb, it is attached to the petcock and inside the gas tank.

The carb is the easy one to change. I hope you have a carb...Otherwise the fuel pump has to come out.

If it has a carb just shake the bike back and forth to slosh the gas around in the tank when your fuel level is low... most of the sediment will wash off the filter and settle in the nether regions of the tank... no worries
