You are able to remove it from the top? I never could... I always took it out from the bottom (wheel well opening). The gas tank cut out was a convenient table it could rest on while I shimmied my hands underneath that clump of iron (without squishing my fingers in the process).
With this procedure, I never spilt a drop of oil as it remains more-or-less upright the whole time.
Just cut the fingers off a rubber glove and zip tie (zap strap for us Canucks) them on to the ports. That should keep the oil from leaking out (mostly).

Friends,
Trying to put my compressor back on and forgot that to make this removal/installation easier I lock-tighted the nuts on the studs and put the studs in from the top but to do that you have to put the back one in first before you attach the AC support, which
I forgot to do, so I had to take everything apart again. And of course when the compressor was laying on its side it started leaking out all the oil I just put in it. Is there a screw on cap that you can put on both sides of the compressor outlets to keep
oil from leaking out while installing??? Does anyone off hand know the thread sizes on this york?? The leaking oil is such a PITA I will try to find some caps if available!
I think I've told you before I never plan on using the air conditioner I just want it on for appearances. If so do I really need much oil in it??? On the GT4 this thing is really hard to get in or out. I've always taken it out from the top but this time I got
out and in from the bottom, but boy there's no room to do this easily because it holds up on one of the studs which catches on the clutch assembly as it has to turn a little bit to get it in position and that starts pumping oil from the crankcase up to the
outlets...
