Ok soo currently doing an engine change on my bike and hit a few problems.. Wonder if you guys can help!

Front sprocket, is it left handed thread?

Also the bottom engine bolt that goes right the way through, that thing is solid! I put an allen key to it but wondering why is there a raised bit? Is it a spec tool? And yes i've taken off the lock nut :D

Lastly, There is a wire/pipe that goes from left hand side electric block to the left hand side on the top of the engine block at the bottom of the Vformat, if that makes sense? What is this and im struggling removing it! Many thanks!!

Any help would be hugely appreciated! Many Thanks!

Wassy!

WRONG - RIGHT HAND THREAD (LEFTY LOOSEY)

UNSURE ON THIS
