Yeah that's a pain in the butt but at least it doesn't go all over the headers. The problem is though that if a knob in a bike shop over tightens the filter you can't use the old "punch a screw driver through it" method

With permission and specific instruction from Wattie since being banned from unsupervised work on my own bike :lol: , I stripped her down somewhat and got the alternator cover off. Solenoid undamaged :D Just awaiting new cover & gasket. No other visible damage to the motor or radiator :kuda:

The oil filter on the six however is buried at the top of the engine, mind you there appears to be heaps of space at the front of the engine
