If your problem is that you cannot stretch the spring enough to reach the holes on the kickstand as well as the small hole under the motor, you might try taking the kickstand off by removing the 1/2" bolt from the top of it, thread the spring into both holes and now you should be able to get the leverage necessary to stretch the spring and put the kickstand back into its mounting hole and the bolt back in.

Remove the derby cover on the back end of the primary cover. Behind it you will find a spring and nut. Both slide off. Remove the nut behind that. You have to turn the screw inside it to get it out. remove the bolts from the primary cover and pull if off, AFTER you drain the oil. Once you are done, install the cover and put the first nut back on and turn the screw, just until it bottoms and then back out about 1/8 turn. Put the other nut back on and the spring. Put in your oil and install the cover.

You don't need to fix it.
Lift the bike on a stand that maintains a vertical stance (not resting on the kickstand). Remove the six bolts that hold on the derby cover to the primary case, found on the left hand side of the motorcycle. Be sure to have a new gasket ready on hand. Remove the derby cover making sure that the clutch spring does not fall off. Check the fluid level. A properly filled case will have just enough oil to cover the bottom teeth of the clutch.
