Not such a bad job, possible single-handed. Just take it steady - plenty of guidance on here & advrider. You got the manual?
 
You don't mention if you are following any particular method.
There is quite a lot of info on this forum, which I used.
From memory,
Steptoe recommends lifting the rear tail assembly, tiying it upright, and removing the whole gearbox, drive assy together.
Don't touch the brakelines, they will bend enough.
Don't bend the clutch push rod.
The hardest part I found was getting the battery box out.
Definately tie the mainstand to the front wheel.
 
With a clutch kit in your possession all you pay for is labour if you get someone else to do it! Best of luck with it.
 
Get a proper Siebenrock oil-resistant clutch plate - lasts longer, plus avoids many potential show-stopping scenareos on yer travels or longer rides vs the regular clutch plate.

But too late for that recommendation me reckons?

Replacement is around 6+ hour job. Make sure you or your mechanic balances it right - spread all markings on the 3 plates 120 degrees apart.
