So, im trying to remove my primary cover and how do you remove the clutch cable? Also not the drain plug bolt, but there is a big bolt with nut that i assume adjustes tension on the chain, what do i have to do with it to get the cover to come off?

As far as the clutch cable goes, when I took mine off, I unhooked it from the lever and then just wrenched it out. The chain tensioner can stay in, just loosen it a lot. That's pretty much it. The shifter is self explanatory.

When you put it back on, be careful and make sure your torque settings are correct. Those bolts are garbage. It's a real pain in the ass to remove a broken one. Same thing with the big bolt that holds the shifter on.

Hope that helps! : )

Watch those bolts.Some are longer then the others. Also there is a order in which those bolts go in and get torqued. Buy the manual its a piece of mind.
