I am the process of reintalling my tranny after a clutch swap and just was able to stab the trans and get it to meet the moto and be completely flush. The thing is, the trans seems to be slightly out of position, maybe turned 5-10 degrees so the holes do not line up to feed the bolts through. I have tried twisting it but it just wont budge and stays 5-10 degrees off center.

Am I going to have to restab the entire trans? Or, is it possible that the trans is in gear ( I don't remember that it was for removal) and I just have to get it out of gear in order to twist the trans into position?
