Ok. I'm new to this cite and just got a 06 buell blast 500 around 2 weeks ago. I bought a service manual and I want to paint not only the plastic mods but the frame to match. Got the plastics off with no problems, but I am curious as to how hard it is to remove the engine. I have seen in several places that its better to think of the task as pulling the frame off of the engine. Do you set up a support for the engine and transmission as a whole and just pull the frame? Thanks in advance -- ZSmitty:D
