I am trying to replace my shifter shaft and have pulled the motor and both clutches are removed. I have access to the shaft, but it won't slide out of the motor. I haven't been able remove any of the parts attached to it and I'm stuck. A metal part on the case holds the shaft in place and tapping on it with a mallet I can tell it doesn't slide out the left hand side of the motor. How do I get this shaft out? I have read the manual a thousand times, but it is very brief on this part.

hey, if it is bent, it won't just slide out. you will have to tap it out, being careful not to damage the case.
did you remove the the crankcase spacer?
