I have a 2002 f4i, and am wanting to take the swingarm off and drop the engine to replace the clutch. The question i have is does anyone know where i can find the tool used to take off that nut that holds the collar that goes thru swingarm and transmission? It looks like a certain kind of socket that is almost like a key? Any help would be appreciated

 

i am assuming your taking about the one with 4 tabs in a X pattern. if so make one if you have access to a bridgeport or a good cut/off wheel. I did it with a socket cant remember what size but try them in there till you get one fairly snug mark the socket and cut away.

 

alright ill give it a try, thanks man.....

 

Dude, you don't need to do that to change the clutch. Clutch is on right side, just remove fairings.
