The engine cradle unbolts from the frame. Two (Allen) bolts each corner 8 total.
If you have three mounts........ One through the swing-arm and two separate bolts up front by the battery, this means you need an engine mount update....Whoever you by parts from (hope it's a site sponsor) should be able to set you up with it.
Four nuts hold the header to the head. Some times you have to do a little wiggling to get it off but be careful it has never taken me a lot of force to get one off and those studs are kinda small. And thats were it seems to hang up for me.
I pull the slave cylinder from the motor but make sure nobody pulls the clutch in while its off the motor. It will break the slave cylinder. Some people have a plate they bolt on it and some tape up the clutch lever to stop anyone who might have the urge to pull it in. Do a search on broke slave cylinder, I know there have been a few tips to prevent this.
I tend to leave the throttle body hanging from the air box cable and all. I would say if you hook it all back up it will run. but a D&M kit is a nessary tool in my opinion. and I do throttle cal as routine maintenance
