Gearbox strip down

[Hooleymyster]

I about to remove the engine. - all done bar the dropping out on medium hydraulic lift. Is there any guides/ manuals for order? I have downloaded the manual but it seem to omit separating the engine and gearbox. Many thanks

Yes all done and back together. It is a big job but manageable. To get it out I had a small hydraulic wheeled lift under the engine and an engine lift on the frame. I didn’t take the front forks out and managed fine. To work on the gearbox I rotated the engine using the hoist then mounted back on the lift. Then it’s easier to dismantle. There are “special tools”required for certain fixings, but I made them from some old sockets. I also had made a clutch basket tool previous to this for another. Just take your time, follow the manual and have space to lay it out like in order.
