Hello All. Thanks to those of you who helped me out with my starter clutch questions. I have also learned alot about other problems I had just from reading others posts. Thanks guys :P
I have a 1980 GS750 that was given to me by my brother in law. I've recently been bringing it back to life. New battery,wiring,chain,pod filters,spark plugs ect. I finally got it running good with the increased air flow through the filters. Just alot of trial and error. So far so good.
But then about a week later my starter clutch goes out. Turns out its cracked. :x
Well here is my current problem. I need to remove the rotor/flywheel to change my starter clutch. I've read alot of back posts looking for an answer, but cant seem to find anything for this application. I know I need a special puller, but reading other posts I've found that the tool I thought i needed wont work. I'm referring to the 16mm x 1.5 bolt/puller. An earlier post stated that this bolt chewed up his threads, and I don't want that. Is the puller I need just a special bolt or is that the wrong tool for ther job? I've found a few places that sell this tool, but none are very specific as to what size I need.
Any suggestions as to what size bolt I need or maybe a different tool? :?

Hey, thanks for the info guys. Well from what I've seen there are 2 different types of this tool, one that is a 2 piece unit, which daveo posted a pic of, and the other just a hardened "bolt". So the 2 piece tool is used for the GS1100 and the GS750 uses the male extractor alone? What is the difference between these 2 motors that you need a different tool?
