Never to

Never to
forget!

Remove the shift linkage rod from the shift shaft by removing the 10mm bolt in the
linkage arm. You can let this hang free without removing the remainder of the
shifter assembly.
 |
Now that you have the clutch slave cylinder out of the way you can actually
get to the cover under which is the shifting parts. Unplug the single wire
connector going to the center of this cover (the neutral light circuit) and
move this wire out of the way.
Put something on the ground to catch some of the oil that is trapped in
this section even though you drained the crankcase. Probably a cup of oil,
give or take a little bit.
Using a suitable 8mm socket remove the 6 bolts holding
this cover. Take note that not all of the bolts are the same
length so you will need to pay attention to which one's are coming out of
which holes.

You should now be looking at something like this. There is a snap
ring on the shaft that you do not need to remove unless you are
going to replace the spring behind it. I removed it, turned out
I didn't need to, but I didn't know any better. Snap ring pliers
are a must if your planning on removing them (Autozone, $11.99
and took me about 30 minutes to go to town and get them).
That big lug looking thing in the middle takes a #5 metric Allen
wrench to remove. Once you take that center Allen bolt out you can
now remove pretty much the whole assembly, shaft and all. Watch on
the back of the shaft as it comes out of the crankcase hole, there is
a small thin washer.
