I need to replace the right side cover gasket. I don't have a manual. Can I just remove the kick starter, hoses, clutch cable, and pull the side cover off, or do I have to remove the clutch cover, waterpump, and governor shaft? It looks like (from a pic I saw on the Internet) I should be able to pull the side cover without removing all that stuff.

You don't have to remove the governer shaft but you do need to remove the gear at the top of it that connects it to the kips system. Remember this nut is LEFT HAND THREAD!! Then remove the kickstarter and you should be good to go. Removing the water pump cover is not required but it does make reassembly easier because you can turn the water pump shaft to get the gears to mesh properly. Replace your gasket and be on your way.
