Its probably the gaskit stiking if its the 1st time its been off, TAP it gently preferably with a rubber hammer, do not try to wedge it open with a srewdriver, its a casting and you could break it. Once you get an equal gap around it wiggle it gently as it will probably stick on the kickstart dog spindle, slightly forward of central. Take your time and try to save the gasket, or in as bigger bits as you can.
On re-assembly do not use gasket glue, Hermitite or anything else, assemble dry.

Easy with the hammer-rubber mallet would be better  I had my cover off a few days ago. I did not want to come off right away. First a silly question: There are 8 bolts-is that how many you have taken out? (I ask because I missed one the first time around.) |
