Can anyone give ma any info which will aid me in removing the inner timing cover , it seems to be sticking round the kickstart shaft .

It seems I don't have the knack removed all bolts but cant get off said part .

Have you removed the peg which locates the end of the kickstart spring? If my memory is correct; it screws right through to the crankcase. With the clutch removed a gentle tap on the end of the mainshaft should see the cover come away with the complete gear cluster. It is many years since I worked on unit BSA singles, so I hope that this is correct but I did do a lot of them.
