Hello all, I need some tech advise. I am in the process of removing my primary cover on my 03 XB9S. I am at the point where I should be able to just pull it off, WRONG. The cover is seriously stuck on. I have pulled and pulled and even lightly tapped around it with a rubber mallet but to no avail. So does any one have any tricks? I could be a little more forceful but I figured I'd ask first. Don't want to scratch the paint. Any help would be appreciated. Thanx Jason |

Do you have the service manual? |

Double check that you have removed all the bolts! I did the same thing the first time I pulled the cover. I left the one next to the primary adjuster bolt, and started tugging away until I realized what was going on. Then slide it off the shifter shaft gently. If it still dosnt come off then I would say make sure you have a manual like Tpoppa said, and make sure that you have removed the clutch adjuster and all the pieces that come with it. Good Luck! |

Well I got it off. I do have the manual, and I did have the bolts out. It was just really stuck on there. Had to use a small bar to pry between the muffler mounting bracket and the bottom side of the cover, a small part sticks out on the bottom side I could pry off of. Didn't scratch any thing either. Thanx |
