Go over the diagram carefully, once you all the bolts out, the cases nearly fall apart (seriously, be careful). It's putting them back together that's a bitch - pain in the ASS lining up the transmission to the forks.

Your kiddin me...I thought they were one of the EASIER case sets to do....since you don't have to worry about the mains also. Ya just need to get them level so the forks stay in place while droppin the case down....

You should try a Vmax or old FZR case.....
