[QUOTE="Workinman, post: 220284, member: 5673"] At this point, I’ve removed EVERY engine mounting bolt, and the right side header. Still not working. Then I found some information on another GoldWing site and I’ve figured out what I have to do. I will soon go back go back out to the garage and remove the left side header, the subframe, and move the engine slightly to the left to facilitate removal of the screen cover and the neutral switch. I’m not sure whose “STUPIDER” at this point. Honda for designing this, or me for not replacing that switch while I had the motor out. I’m also going to be replacing the temperature sending unit while I’ve got things partially disassembled, but it doesn’t look like it’s going to be easy to get to that either. I don’t think they could have made these two switches harder to get to unless they put them inside the block. Okay. I’m done bitching. I reserve the right to do additional bitching when I’m fixing the scratches on the frame and engine that were put there trying to replace a stupid switch. [/QUOTE]
