Answer
Amanda, sounds like a good deal to me.  If you look inside the front of the tank, you will see two metal sockets that look like "U"s.   On the frame there are two rubber bushings that are mounted on two steel pegs on the frame up near the front forks.  The rubber bushing slide into those two sockets.  At the back of the tank there's a flat tab that slides into the rubber mount that is on top of the frame just at the front of the seat.  You have to pry the rear mount up and over the top of the rear tank mount to hold it down.  

Hope this helps
