Transmission & Center Stand Removal

The transmission and center stand pre-removal.

I finally got to the point where the transmission was ready to be removed.  I started by removing the speedometer cable and the clutch release mechanism.

Three bolts, one nut and a little help from Chrissy freed the transmission.  It was surprisingly light.

The clutch is going to be a chore to remove.  Apparently if not done right, it will fly into your face with substantial force.

I also removed the center stand, which was fairly straightforward.  Strangely, this is not what the stock unit looks like.  It would be interesting to know the story behind this.

Next comes the engine.
