Answer
the nut is left handed and you will probably need a impact wrench to remove it. The other problem is you will need a clutch hub puller to remove the clutch hub from the trans shaft. the studs go in from the back of the clutch hub. If you have had roller bearings come out then you will need to change the hub anyway. You cant put the bearings back in.
Good luck and happy riding
