splitting cases
hey guys,
I'm trying to split the cases on this ZX12
i removed everything that was needed, according to the service manual, but these things are moving....Do I need to apply a little heat(hair dryer) at the seams to loosing up the glue?
Any help would be appreciated

Dead blow hammer, knock the piss out of it if it is the first time.
After that, they come apart good.......

It spun a rod bearing(#4 rod)....My brother ran the bike low in oil (about a quart low).
So now I'm doing a rebuild.
It was a good thing, it locked up while he was starting it with the starter and it did not lock-up or throw a rod when he was riding it...He likes to ride fast tooo., so I'm glad everything work out the way it did.
