[QUOTE="henwil, post: 1178078, member: 74006"] Hi Folks! Well, I started the process this morning between doing other things. The gas tank if off, the PAIR tubes removed and the coolant drained. I will install the block-off plates once the coolant pipe is off. Bob Price was kind enough to loan me his shim kit, feeler gauges, spare head cover gasket and TBS gauge. I do have a question about the throttle cables. Do they need to be removed or only moved out of the way. Some of you mentioned to disconnect them at the throttle. Looking at them it is not clear to me what is involved, and I could not find anything in the service manual. Please give me some more info on that. I am also not planning to remove the side cover. The bike is in 5th gear and I will rotate the rear wheel. I assume I need to turn it in the direction it normally turns. Thanks! [/QUOTE]
