I've got a set of new friction plates coming for my '74 XS650, and had a couple of questions:
1. Do I need to drain the oil from the motor before removing the right side case?
2. I've read the procedure in my Clymers and from what I gather I only need to remove the clutch bolts and springs and remove the pressure plate to gain access to remove the old disc pack and put it back in with new friction plates. There is no reason to disassemble any further than that, is there?
Thanks in advance! I attached a pic of my old battle ax. It's a 20 footer but it runs great and is a blast to ride!
