The clips that hold the fuel lines to the connectors that enter the tank can be F****** to get off. The two metal pipes that enter the tank are held in place by a single bolt and clamp in the middle. Undo the bolt and pull the connectors out from the bottom of the tank.
These have an "O" ring seal, smear a very thin layer of grease when re-fitting.
Best to drain tank first or have very little fuel in it.
Other suggestion is .... Ducati do a set of fuel lines for the 749 / 999 with the dry break fuel fittings in as per the 916 / 996 / 998 . Buy a set of these and do the conversion when you take your tank off.
