    Which Size Flywheel Tool For 1984 GS1150 ? Apparently, size DOES matter... lol

    I see two different sizes listed for the tool to remove the flywheel from a 1984 GS1150... A 1.5 X 30MM RH and a 1.5 x 35MM RH...which one do I need?
    I could measure mine but its still together and Im gathering tools so I can just open it up and start working.

      30 is for the BIG left end cranks, 83 & up E models. 35mm is for the SMALL left end cranks, 82 & earlier. Go figure!!

        Ok, now this makes sense. I bought a 30mm for my 82 1100, and it was too small so I borrowed a puller from a friend who works on bikes and he had one that fit. So I was thinking the puller I had was entirely wrong, and if it was too small for a "small end crank" it was sure not gonna work on my "big end crank" 1150... wow, was I wrong. Thanks Guys... I guess Ive got the correct tool now.
