https://www.manualslib.com/manual/1053286/Suzuki-2005-Gsf1200.html?page=110#manual I know thats B12 but the procedure is the same. Dont be tempted to use a pry bar to split cases. Once ALL the fixings are out they'll split easy enough. Just be mega careful not to drop the crank shells or get any grit/shite on them. You want to be operating theater clean, dont be tempted to wipe the shells either, leave them be. As CC said, easier to remove the clutch assy and the front sprocket while the engines in situ but a dugga dugga should still get them off. make sure youve got JIS screwdrivers to get the screws on the bearing retaining plates out inside the clutch housing, Impact would be better. Dont lose the little twagger that the oil pump drive gear sits on either if you go that far. Take loads of photos as youre doing it so you dont get the selector forks the wrong way around when it goes back together. Brake cleaner aerosols are your friend So is blue roll not kitchen towel as it leaves lint everywhere take your time Pick the phone up if you get stuck

Front end should go in right enough, you'll want a stepped top yoke though. Back end should be fairly straightforward too tbh, is it an overbraced arm?

Feel a discussion is needed about your hoard of dry clutches!

RTFR. This is an information sharing site that everyone is expected to contribute to not 'jump in, take information and leave'. Feel free to leave if you dont like it. Anyway off topic. @Scuzz300Swingarm will go in but you'll need custom top hats and you'll have to do some leg work on the linkage but it has been done. Theres a few slabbies in the projects section with different arms fitted. Good luck

Garage recommendations in the South East, (preferably Kent)...
davecara replied to Grunties's topic in Oil Cooled
Enysford Garage near Sevenoaks is owned by an oil cooled gsxr nut. I’m sure he’d be able to help you out -
I'll make sure Pauls got the tea on and the bed made

Paul and I will be there mid afternoon Friday setting up, you can get onto the site until about 10pm I think but they close the hall at 7 Friday night so if you arrive after that just keep the bike with us until the morning

davecara replied to GeorgeEI7KO's topic in Oil Cooled
It’s the shipping to the Emerald Isle that would kill it -

Someone was selling the sockets for those on eblag, I bought one years ago, god only knows where it is now though. https://www.amazon.co.uk/Clutch-Spanner-Motorcycle-Socket-Removal/dp/B092MJJJ6T/ref=asc_df_B092MJJJ6T/?tag=googshopuk-21&linkCode=df0&hvadid=500841836566&hvpos=&hvnetw=g&hvrand=12297298977281963001&hvpone=&hvptwo=&hvqmt=&hvdev=c&hvdvcmdl=&hvlocint=&hvlocphy=1006998&hvtargid=pla-1378239639762&psc=1 there you go Otherwise, warm up the frame and get a piece of flat bar that will engage into 2 slots, grip that with a big adjustable spanner. Run a tap through the threads once its out. Youre welcome to borrow the tap if you need
