Hi all,
Just wanted to know the best way of removing the chain case cover to get to the front sprocket?

You'll have to remove the gearchange linkage first, then the sprocket cover. One end of the linkage is left hand thread. Make a note of how much thread is used as you dismantle, so that the gear lever can be returned to its current position.

This is the bit i wasn't sure about removing, which end is the left had thread? and what will be the best way of removing gearchange linkage?
