Hi guys, about 5yrs ago i took out my starter motor to do some work on it. I remember it being fiddly but it came out just the same. Now it's time to do it again but this time it won't come out. It must be the way i'm doing it as it pulls away easily till it hits the case on the far side (below the rear brake reservoir). Can't get it to wriggle out like it have previously. I have twisted the carb slightly to help with clearance but that doesn't seem to be the issue. What am i doing wrong? Oh crap can't fix the pics sorry....

Anyone pulled off there starter motor before? What difficulties did you have and how did you overcome them?
Thanks for your reply. Yes i undid the bolts and only loosened the cover a little. Didn't even take off the gear lever. It was enough to get the starter out
