Default Drive 2 Rear Clutch Removal

What's the trick to remove the rear clutch? Single 12 mm bolt but I can't get it too budge. I have the gear selector in N (between F - R). Any suggestions?

Be kind, first time trying to do something like this. :)

Thanks

Odd, I'm pretty sure it's just straight splines like the other rear clutches since about 2013

I just can not get the bolt to break lose while holding the clutch from spinning. Put all my might into it using a longer wrench as well, still won't loosen.

I really thought this would be fairly easy but it's turning out not to be.

An impact wrench should do the trick...

Dittos with Dave. On mine I was able to remove the rear tire and exhaust system and get an impact wrench in there.

I do not think; this being said, I do not know the Drive 2, but I would be highly surprised...

It's not left hand threads. I didn't realize the bolt was the problem.

Thanks all. Was not left handed threads, was just torqued on there really good. I'm sure the factory does this. Finally got it broke free by putting cart in F and using a breaker bar to get more leverage. Clutch slid right off. :)
