shouldnt be too hard to get the engine out - just whip all of the plastics, including seat etc off first - put them safe with all nuts and bolts

remove fuel tank

then go about the engine

thats pretty easy as they are very straight forward and simple but invest in a haynes manual if u havent already got 1 cos they arevery handy with small bolts u never seem to find!!
