[QUOTE="darringer, post: 808857, member: 26849"] Before even splitting the cases, I would check the lower end for play. There should be no side-to-side play in the crank main bearings. After the top end is off, check the crank big end bearing. There should be zero play up and down in the big end bearing when the rod is pulled up and down. Side-to-side play is not that critcal, since it's a needle bearing. Maybe 2-3mm side-to-side clearance should be okay. If the cases need to be split, I have done it several times with just a flywheel puller for special tools. Instead of a clutch holder, I have used a penny wedged between the clutch gear and the primary gear to hold the clutch for removal. Torqued it back on the same way. Since the penny is soft, it won't hurt either gear. The manual is your best friend if you get stuck. [/QUOTE]
