If you are a returning visitor who never received your confirmation email, then odds are your email provider is blockinig emails from our server. The only thing that can be done to get around this is you will have to try creating another forum account using an email address from another domain.
If you are a returning visitor to the forum and can't log in using your old forum name and password but used to be able to then chances are your account is deleted. Purges of the databases are done regularly. You will have to create a new forum account and you should be all set.

Get an engine stand. Makes it so much easier.
When splitting have it upside down so the tranny doesn't fall out.

Get a workshop manual that you can download, read it. then read it again.. No such thing as stupid questions, only stupid people.
FIRST, get a SUZUKI manual, NOT a Clymer or Haynes!! You don't need an engine stand, just a sturdy table to support the weight of the engine. Drain the oil & take the motor out of the bike. Pull the starter & upper case half bolts (make SURE you get ALL of them!). Pull the clutch hub & the 2 plates behind it that hold the cases halves together. You will need an impact driver for the Phillips head screws on these 2 plates. Remove the small "Z" shape plate in the countershaft area that holds the case halves together. Remove the stator & ignition covers & the ignition plate. Turn the engine upside down & remove the oil pan. Remove ALL of the lower case half bolts & then the cases will be ready to split. Feel free to call me at 714--356-784 five if you need help. I have been building & racing the 1100s & 1150s since they came out. Easy job!

Plugged oil port
How do you figure? Where all the burn is in his pictures are all splash fed areas? I would replace all the shift forks, & shift fork shafts if they are bent, & the damaged gears.

So that is from a bent fork? Looks like oil starvation.
