Now, do I really need to drop the engine to change the bloody front cog? If I do what else do I have to undo before I drop it down far enough? Crying or Very sad

From memory, yes
oh the joys of bimota ownership.
Pipes off, undo coupla bolts, BANG, it's on the floor Laughing
That's the easy bit.
Seriously, if you take the rad and pipes off, your just about ready to drop the lump out anyway. Wink

Dude, thinking back(a very long way) I think I changed the clutch on my first SB6 by undoing the rear engine mountings and using a jack, lowering the back of the engine which went just enough to do the job. The pipes didn't have to come off but it was a struggle. It,s no more of a job to drop the engine Wink

CVheers bud, figured that was the case. Pipes are off and all ready to go... just wondered if you knew a magic method... you normally do! That trade show had zero for any bimota parts, no where near as nbig as the stafford event. Take care and catch up this year!
