    All the spring mounts come off easy all the same size torque bit no need to compress them, the center av bushings are bit tougher I used a small screwdriver to work under it slowly and it popped right out, your have to remove the ignition coil under the recoil assembly to get that side off.
    It's less than a hour job - that's with time scratching your head to get the tank out of those center holes:confused:

    Maybe it took longer than I thought on my 650? I dont remember didnt think it took an hour maybe 40 mins? Maybe it was an hour and I lost track of time
