Is this a direct swap, or does it take modification? What else is needed other than the gas tank and the 88 straps?

If it jams, force it....if it breaks, it needed replacing anyway.

Thanx guys. I thought this was the case, but didn't want to get almost thru the job only to find out that the frame was different to accommodate the larger tank.
