Shifter seal

[Stealthblade]

I am having a problem that might come down to... I just don't get it.

 

I need to replace my shifter seal.

I have the middle gear cover off.

 

It seems that I need to remove the linkage that clamps onto the shifter rod, but the front header pipe is in the way.

Do I need to take that off to get everything out of the way?

If so, how the heck do you get the front pipe off the engine without taking off the radiator?

 

I'm a bit frustrated right now with this, so maybe I'm not thinking clearly.

 

Suggestions?

Call or PM Cowboy. He just replaced his.

I ended up draining the radiator, pulling it to the side, loosened the header pipe so it would swing far enough away.

Long day, but got it done.

 

Maybe I can actually ride this thing now.
