I had real trouble on my 550 removing the taper roller bearings as there is no space to get a long drift to knock them out, the bearing is the same diameter as the housing. In the end i had a mate put a bead of weld around it and it just fell out. Same problem now with Lazarus.

The manual states there are 6 bolts on the top half of the casing I have 6 holes but only 5 bolts so either one is missing or there its a dowel in its place - position is circled in blue?

What is the big bolt head with a built in tab please?

Big bolt is the gearchange selector drum retaining bolt. It was used on early models to aid positive neutral selection.

The one circled is one of the 6 bolt holes and uses a 6 x 100mm flanged bolt.

Thanks Ken - a missing bolt then - no problem. Next I need to dismantle the primary gear drive as it's nothing like the 400.

Time for me to read the manual again in detail - so far I've just removed two circlips & the gearshift levers - that's it for today - need to keep the right side of Wendy on her only day off in the last 6 days.
