on the new gen engine, the top coolant exit line is held on by the valve cover which means removing the valve cover leaves that hose just kinda sitting there making it easy for a nudge to lead to spilled coolant on your head. what i do is leave the front engine mounts on, drain the coolant from the entrance side, pop that hose off of the exit side, then just slide the cover up to rotate the exit pipe out of the way (or pull it out) then the cover slides out the clutch-hand side of the bike. the emissions stuff can get in the way if you dont remove it.
