    82 gsx 400T

    Hi all, just about to start on my rebuild and want to get it running
    properly first. I need to inspect the clutch but am having a problem
    getting the cover off. All the bolts have come out as per the manual
    but it won't move. Do I have to remove the ignition points or backplate?
    Anyone help?

    Thanks

      Do I have to remove the ATU and set the timing on the marks as well
      or will the cover just come off?

      Thanks

        After you pull all the bolts out there will be two more under the cover. You need to pull the ATU rotor bolt and timing plate if its in the way or just to let the wires hang down.

        There are guide pin's that seize the cover in place. One is on the top right and the other is straight back.

        You should find a few lips on the cover to help pull on it.

          Thanks for the help to all, I found help on utube too. Not to difficult when
          you know how. Covers at the polisher, new gaskets arrived today so back
          together over the weekend.

          Cheers

            Don't use any gasket sealer
