Removing the left hand engine cover from a Ducati Desmodue 600ss
Any assistance into this black art would be greatly appreciated.
I have a slight oil leak problem where the sealant/gasket has popped out of place and I would like to remedy the situatiom. I have bought some sealant appropriate for the job. So far so good. I warmed the engine up, switched the engine off and drained the oil. I took all the gubbins off the outside (gear shifter etc,) and undid all of the bolts.
I thought (rather naively as it turns out) that the engine casing, relieved of all it's bolts would come off the side of the engine. No such luck. I tried for about an hour and couldn't get the bastard to shift. So, what am I missing here?
How do I get this cover off the left hand side of the engine just so I can clean it, put sealant on it and put it back on?
Cheers in advance.
In space, no one can smell your fart.
