I have a 74 850 which I purchased new in '74. The shifter sticks and will not return to the center position to allow the next shift. Compounding the sticking is my inability to remove the transmission cover. Does anyone have a trick to remove the transmission cover and/or a fix for the sticking shifter. I has not been removed since 1974. The bike has been in the house and not ridden since 1995 when this problem surfaced but I have had no trouble removing any other parts. Any tips would be greatly appreciated......Thanks......Jerry
