    Working on my 86 VFR750 and can't get the water pump out. Got the cover off and the hose off but the pump won't slide out. It rotates a tiny bit but won't come out. Any tricks or ideas more than welcome. I must add that the bike has been sitting for a number of years!

    I would spray W40 on every crevasses and let it sit for an hour and try again.Just cover the hoses.
