Hi Nigel, you seem to be one or two steps ahead of me all the time. My16M, fork oil change, gearbox...
My question for now is, did you remove the engine for this or did you get to the gearbox just by removing swingarm and some other stuff? I saw a picture somewhere of an 1100 Sport with the rear end of the frame tilted upwards. On the other hand, it probably isn't too hard to separate the whole engine from the frame. In my case it's more a matter of workspace, housing the bike in my livingroom
