With the crank removed from the cases, you could easily tap on the rear of it and knock it off the crank. If your gonna use the clutch that Ed sent then no harm no foul in smacking that around.

Gonna skip that idea, won't take the chance of tweaking the crank out of shape.Comment

I wasnt talking use a 10 Lb sledge..LMAO just tap it all the way around the rim of the clutch and work it off. Unless you go Magilla The Gorilla on it, i doubt youll tweek anything.
EDIT..Its the pressing to the taper that makes the rotor sort of GRIP against the crank and thats what makes it so hard to get off. a few taps and she will most likely just fall off on the bench no problem. If i remeber correctly, the torque spec is something like 30 FT LBS on that bolt..wonder if youd better use a new unstresssed bolt as well???Last edited by chuck hahn; 04-19-2012, 09:49 AM.MY BIKES..1977 GS 750 B, 1978 GS 1000 C (X2)

Hey that's an Idea... I'll slip the bearing puller under it and put it in our 30 Ton press!
Got a spare rotor? (kidding!)
Edit... It's a pretty hardened bolt that holds the rotor on.
I used my I.R. impact that puts out 375 Ft lbs of torque on the swing arm bolt and it still didn't come off. I doubt a slight tap will loosen the rotor.Last edited by rustybronco; 04-19-2012, 09:52 AM.Comment

Have you ever pressed a wheel bearing out of a spindle before? If you have, you'd know how much truth there is to that statement. The first time makes you jump a bit.Comment

Dale..I know this from doing 2 of mine. And maybe i got lucky, but i put my home made puller in and just a few taps with the hammer on the back edge of the rotors and they literally just fell off. In fact I have one to do on one of the skunks soon as i get another day off. Gonna go over to Randys and take one of the starter clutches off for on mine.MY BIKES..1977 GS 750 B, 1978 GS 1000 C (X2)

If this method doesn't work, I'll pull the crank and give it a try. The bench is a gonna be a bit messy if I do...Comment

Have both tap and 'plug' in hand. Come on 4:30!Comment

It worked a treat!
Unfortunately it will need a crank...
Two of the starter clutch bolts were loose and one has gone missing. I think I tell for certain why it was parked.
OH CHUCK!!!!Comment

Can't remember Dale, does that starter clutch bearing ride on the crank end? Crank doesn't look too bad so I'm missing something.Ed
To measure is to know.

Both bearings ride on the crank just behind the taper.. One bearing is destroyed along with the corresponding surfaces on the crank and flywheel.
