Too much snow in front of the garage to get a pic but the tank goes under the battery box.
There are two small flanges on the bottom of the battery box and a groove in the bottom of the tank for the rubber strap. A bit of a pain to hook up.
Small hose hooks up with the carb breather box and the other hose dumps the residue over near the front of the swingarm.

I assume your CBX is an early model? The late model tank bolts on. The early tank straps to the spark unit by the hooks built into it. But if you have the Dyna ignition and have removed your stock spark unit (many guys just leave it on) then you'll have to fashion something else to hook the strap to.
