Thats the right way to do it. I was pretty much spot on for my description of what you would have to do. Though I did forget about draining the coolant and removing the water pump. Minor detail
. However Im glad that you were able to get it sorted out.
If i ever forget to loctite mine i useally end up playing hide-and-go-seek for the whole starter in the woods about a 1/2 hour into the ride 
Mine broke while I was kicking it so I was able to recover it.If i ever forget to loctite mine i useally end up playing hide-and-go-seek for the whole starter in the woods about a 1/2 hour into the ride
That happened to my brother on his................. KTM ...If i ever forget to loctite mine i useally end up playing hide-and-go-seek for the whole starter in the woods about a 1/2 hour into the ride
... happend during a dez race way back when... if itwasn't his kicker it was his shifter... what a POS that was..... New part came in, still waiting on gaskets... 
hope you got it all back together, that bolt is much longer, but IMO it is a tad too long, file it down a bit.
Just received my 2nd gasket yesterday. I will wrench on it this weekend and maybe go riding Sunday
Fixed the Bittttttttttttch
WORKING HARDDDDD lol
Although I do agree the short bolt was the cause of the failure there had to be some other circumstance to cause that shaft to break. I wonder if the previous owner seized the bike and did some funny stuff to try and break the motor loose. Usually the gears fail before that shaft breaks. Glad you got it fixed
