I had (are having) the same problem with mine. To get the engine out you need a clutch puller, Once you get the clutch off . On the recoil side there is a bracket attached to the engine It will have a few bolts that will need to be undone. Once all that is done she will come right out. P.S. You will need to remove any hoses, air box, Y pip, That may be in the way. Hope this helps.
