It has been done at least once. One of our members did his. I don't remember his name but he did say it was a ton of work. Maybe he will see this thread and show you.

Re: Anyone ever use the factory filler location for a rear mounted tank?

Nearly identical thread came through here recently. As I recall there were pictures and methodology for filling the rear tank from the factory fill location. What I don't recall is how exactly that was done. Couldn't find it with a quick search.

OP of that thread will likely see this one.
