    A note to old forum members...
    I receive numerous requests from people who can no longer log in because their accounts were deleted. As mentioned in the forum FAQ, user accounts are deleted if you haven't logged in for the past 6 months. If you can't log in, then create a new forum account. If you don't get an error message, then check your email account for an activation message. If you get a message stating that the email address is already in use, then your account still exists so follow the instructions in the forum FAQ for resetting your password.

    Have you forgotten your password or have a new email address? Then read the forum FAQ for details on how to reset it.

    Any email requests for "can't log in anymore" problems or "lost my password" problems will be deleted. Read the forum FAQ and follow the instructions there - that's what we have one for...

  • Returning Visitors

    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.

Good evening everyone,
I was breaking down my bike so I could paint everything. While following the instructions in the manual to remove the engine, I came across this: <check picture>

It says to remove those two screws where the clutch cable is connected. Unfortunately, one of them is frozen. I already tried to get it out with a screw remover. No dice. So, do I really have to remove that screw to take out the entire engine?

2. How do I get the clutch cable out of the 'holder'? It seems to be one piece.

Thanks for your help.

cant you use progressively large drill bits to pop off the button head of the screw therby leaving only the screws shaft?
 
Are you using an impact driver?
If not, you need one before you ruin another screw.

Thanks for the tips fellas. I"m off to pick up an impact driver at Home Depot this morning.

What is the function of that screw though?
