yeah but.. what is this "hose" and "spring drive" ???

The terminology I recall is the "sliding dogs" and "cush drive."

Minimum 2500 USD this is gonna cost me if I do it at my expense, the workshop estimates. Removing engine, dismantling gearbox, change parts and put it all back together. Yes, labour intensive work is costly over here...Given proper instructions and the right tools, how hard can it be to do it myself?

Shop rate here is USD 125/hour. The parts for the recall costs about USD100.

So 8 hours at 125/hour is an even 1000 plus parts, so maybe 1250 or after taxes and incidentals......

I know Norway is expensive but I wouldn't pay double unless they have done this EXACT procedure before. Even then I would hesitate.

 

The shop manager also explained to me that they did by by pulling the transmission, not the entire engine. I know they actually did the work because I can see the new sealant between the transmission and the engine, and they chipped some paint while splitting the two..... ;)

I might do it myself, if I had to do it again. It's just a motorcycle, not a space shuttle. How hard can it be? 

But I would take my time and lots of photos while I did it.....!
