flywheel puller question

Hi again guys
I bought a flywheel puller from Motion Pro to check for a noisy starter clutch. (1983 1100e) I just found out the threaded section on the flywheel is smaller than expected. The puller is m35x1.5 as it shows all the catalogs but I measured the OD at 30 mm. I estimate the thread is a 28. I have a pitch gauge but didn't check yet. Is this correct. ...am I missing something?
 
this happens a lot.
83-86 1100/1150 takes the smaller threaded puller.
80-82 1100 takes the larger threaded puller.
 
Once again, thanks.
28mm sound right?
I'll do some checking

Please. I see 2, 28mm pullers on the Motion Pro site, the main difference is the thread protector cap thread size 12mm or 14mm.
I'm going to run out to the garage and check that right now

looks like it is either a 30mm or 35 mm . and from what blowerbike said sounds like 30 mm is for 83 1100E and the 35mm for 82 1100E , is this right ???

not sure on the mm but you have it right.
big is small and small is big.
 
Ok Thanks a million. I'll order a 28mm with a 14mm thread protector. What could possibly go wrong?

I going to have to start a thread in the project forum solely for your amusement. Everything I touch on this bike needs attention.
 
well most sites I went to , offer the 30mm for the 83 11000E , and the 35mm for the 82 1100e , , need Ray or one of the other guy who knows ,
 
somebody call ray and see..he is west coast time.
i know what i know but the mm on the threads was something i never needed to know having both factory pullers.
 
ok i measured 28mm id. of the correct puller.
so that means you need larger than 28mm.
the od of the rotor threads measure about 30mm.
there has been MANY people buy the wrong puller because of bad info online/venders bad info or not knowing what you have crank shaft wise.
i am offering the measurement's i have stated but i am NOT stating the actual thread size because i don't know it...hahahhahahha

I will :D

I hope Motion Pro has a sense of humor....or I'm going to be the proud owner of TWO flywheel pullers with no known use

motion pro should really have an accurate application sheet on pullers.
i have read over the years that this isn't the case.
even dealerships will sell you the wrong puller.
dare me to pull an OEM manual out...hehe:twistedevil:
