The way I approach Transmission/clutch service on a loop is to take the
swing arm loose, then pull it back and secure it with a tie-down - with only
the rear engine mount removed (along with the other stuff like the battery
plate, etc.) you can support the back end of the engine with a jack and pull
the gearbox out without worrying about dinging up the frame - just loosen
the front motor mount a little so the engine can move - I raise the rear a
little above the normal position to facilitate gearbox removal. I have done
a whole bunch of these bikes this way.

Subject: v700 seals
im afraid it appears as though i have a leak into the clutch area im
guessing either engine or transmission oil dont know which once i am in
there are both those seals easy to change ? do most take the engine out or
the book mentions you can push it foreward in the frame and get in there too
