I'm taking the clutch basket off to replace the sprague. I've got to the point where you have to undo the nut. The manual says you have to use the special tool to hold the clutch. Is it possible to undo this nut with normal everyday tools?
will that work without locking the clutch off? will it not just spin it round?

You can make a cheap holding tool if youve got any old clutch plates kicking about,just weld a steel to a friction drive plate works a treat

can drill a hole trough some plates and pin it with a nail or two do it with them in the basket so they line up
Make sure you get the piston at TDC on the comp[ stroke before taking the clutch drum off as if there is tension from the valve springs on the cam chain; the intermediate gear will spin as you remove the clutch drum and you've lost your valve timing.
The valves are timed to the crank via the intermediate gear and the clutch drum as you can see from this pic.I lined up the marks before removing the clutch drum.
p.s. mine was finger tight so no worries :?
