Hello. I am new with the forum and am seeking assistance. According to my GL1000 Honda Shop Manual the clutch can be removed with the engine in the frame. I removed the cover but cannot get the Clutch Center (aluminum inner part) out. There does not seem to be enough room with the engine on the frame. Any suggestions?

Clutch plate removal and adjustments are the only thing that can be done with the motor still installed. There should be enough room to wiggle the center out... barely.

Aluminum inner part should come out after removing the 6 (?) bolts.

Welcome from Oz, good luck with your clutch repair.
its a real bugger :rant: the ( stock ) exhaust gets in the way , but the plates and inners can be removed with the engine in the frame. the actual clutch basket ( outer drum ) cannot.

Also a good place for helpful information. :yes:
Pull the engine. It will be way easier than struggling in that tiny space. Then u can clean the engine screen too. Tgats another thing your "supposed" to be able to do without removing the engine.
nope, it aint easy, not a lot of room. i have also just replaced a neutral switch and cleaned the screen on one of my LTD's in situ. again , not easy but doable. :BigGrin:[url=https://www.classicgoldwings.com/forum/viewtopic.php?p=156065#p156065:1bv14u7d said:
