I have had all the bodywork off my RS regularly for its annual ACF50 treatment. I have found that the gap between the tank covers and the seat can be reduced a little. When reattaching the tank covers, I have all the fasteners in place but slightly loose. Then I press down gently on the rear of the tank covers and tighten the rearmost fasteners first. Those particular fasteners do not have a bezel, so they have some free play in the mounting holes.
This procedure doesn't eliminate the tank/seat gap on my bike, but it does reduce it enough to make a difference.
