I did lose a little top end and it drives a little different but mine does pull better. As for the frame being in the way, same problem on the RXV. I had to pull the leaf spring bolts out the rear shackles so the carriage would drop some and let me get a removal tool in there.. Someone wasn't thinking when they designed this..
I was able to get the extraction tool into my RXV drive clutch by using a "C" clamp to compress the spring on the front engine cradle mount. This dropped the engine down enough to get the tool past the frame.
