Hm, I remember reading in the haynes manual (for the GSX600F) that the engine does actually goes down. First you have to remove the subframe around the engine. I'm interested on knowing how to remove the engine too, because I will perhaps be doing it this weekend and replacing the engine. What I understand you only have to support the engine with some hydralic jack, and then remove its supports.. and just slowly drop the engine.

Yup, it does. I am a moron.
