    I have a RR6, I have cleaned the chain with degreaser, and it's now all clean, but at the small cog end, i can't get to it to give the cog and it's casing a clean, Can I unbolt it or will I leak clutch fluid as it seems that part of the clutch is bolted to this casing, Thanks for the help.

    You can unbolt it without losing fluid, I removed mine to replace the chain and sprocket last year.

    remove gearchange linkage arm pinchbolt, noting alignment. remove the clutch release cylinder mounting bolts x 3 and carefully pull aside. put cable tie around piston if worried about it being displaced. remove pushrod. you can now clean till your heart is content. hope this helps
