Can i remove the whole clutch basket?
Can a diaphragm clutch basket be removed as a whole rather than plate by plate? I need to get the gear shift shaft out as the teeth on the footpeg
side are worn and the gear change link pivot doesnt grip properly. Its a GSXR 1100 WP water cooled engine. The manual only gives a guide for a total
break down.
From what i can see i need to drain the oil, remove the engine clutch case.....can i now undo the nuts that hold the basket in and remove as a whole
or do i need to remove the plates, then the basket?
Cheers folks

Hi mate. Hows you?
Time! Im not blessed with too much of it (im not dying just lack of time) The clutch plates are brand new....they have done 10 laps of Brands hatch
at very slow speeds. The reasons for lack of laps
Slick tyres in the wet...Ive now got Yokohama Advan A048 on so in the dry they will be good and in the wet better than slicks 
Chain was way too loose.... New chain was put on and is now really tight..maybe a little too tight..a 1mm shim might have to come out
Carbs and home made air box fell off.......Carbs put back and airbox secured
Black flagged for shooting flames and being too loud (Which i think is linked to the above) .....Standard ZX10 end can fitted

You can probably trake the pressure plate off, then remove the large centre nut, and take the whole unit out, but putting it back in one peice is
tricky as things tend to move as the centre nut is undone, a small shift in one plate and you have to take them apart anyway.
You're only saving minutes, and maybe costing much frustration putting it back...
