Default removing rear tank bolt

Gonna install the Dk deluxe tank lift on my 98 883. I'll have to remove the rear tank bolt, but the thick wire harness is running right on top of the bolt alongside the frame running up under the tank. I can get to the nut side, but the bolt side is covered. Is it just a matter of cutting some plastic ties and pulling the damn thing out of the way?
Thanks

In a word, yes. And for future reference moving that zip tie is the only way to get at the top rocker box bolts...
