Have you removed the kick start lever? Once you have that off, there should be 8 bolts around the edge to remove. The 2 in the back are longer and the other 6 are all the same length. If you have all 8 of those bolts out you should be able to pull the cover off. There are 2 dowel pins that help align the cover with the case so those could be binding a little bit. I wouldn't be afraid to do some gentle persuasion with a rubber mallet, especially if it is the first time the cover has been removed.

One other note, when you reinstall the cover you will have to slide the kickstart lever back onto the shaft and rotate it a little bit counter clockwise as you push the cover on. This is needed to get the kickstart gear teeth engaging properly and to allow the cover to sit flush before you start putting the bolts back in. If the cover won't slide on and sit flush then your kickstarter is not aligned properly so make sure to fix it before you tighten any bolts.

I hope this helps. Cheers!

Thanks for help. I did remove the kick starter and the bolts you mentioned. I'll try the mallet. Thanks very much.

Adjusted valves on the Clash this morning, approaching 5000 miles. They had loosened a bit since the last adjustment. Set them back to .0025"/.003". Running fine, no issues.

I've been trying different roller weights and for me riding at 4000' to 6500' 12 gram rollers work best. I've tested 14 gram and 16 gram rollers, and 14 gram sliders. Stock rollers weigh 12.5 grams.
