cheap shit puller started bending

will have to get a decent 1 for the job

Sorry for the hijack Dan but am I able to use my three leg bearing puller to remove the flywheel or do I need the specialised flywheel puller. Hope you have had a win!

Hey Dan, here is an idea to help with the flywheel removal and inflict minimal damage.

Tighten the puller up nice and tight and then pour a kettle of boiling water over the flywheel boss. That should move it without hurting anything.

That`s a good idea, never would have thought of boiling water.

Im guessing as its an ex army bike & not having daily or even monthly use that`s why its stuck so tight.

Yes that is a good idea, and you can have a nice cup of tea while you are doing it! Bonus!

much too late for the whole being gentle with the hot water, or the cuppa, while i was heating the flywheel the heat has damaged the inner stainless steel layer that covers the magnets it sort of stood up and creased

so when i realized it's stuffed i took to it with the 32 ounce/900gram hammer
the result flywheel off

now the damage

this is the inner surface that raised up

no longer round

and i stripped the thread on 2 cheapy pullers both on this motor

anyway i cut the end off the "better" one and ground the end to a point so i could have another go

and then i shut the shed and got stuck into some

i needed a diversion from the stuffed flywheel drama's so i bought myself a new toy

this should come in handy with future projects

and a bit closer

a different angle

and finally a close up
