    A note to old forum members...
    I receive numerous requests from people who can no longer log in because their accounts were deleted. As mentioned in the forum FAQ, user accounts are deleted if you haven't logged in for the past 6 months. If you can't log in, then create a new forum account. If you don't get an error message, then check your email account for an activation message. If you get a message stating that the email address is already in use, then your account still exists so follow the instructions in the forum FAQ for resetting your password.

    Have you forgotten your password or have a new email address? Then read the forum FAQ for details on how to reset it.

    Any email requests for "can't log in anymore" problems or "lost my password" problems will be deleted. Read the forum FAQ and follow the instructions there - that's what we have one for...

  • Returning Visitors

    If you are a returning visitor who never received your confirmation email, then odds are your email provider is blockinig emails from our server. The only thing that can be done to get around this is you will have to try creating another forum account using an email address from another domain.

    If you are a returning visitor to the forum and can't log in using your old forum name and password but used to be able to then chances are your account is deleted. Purges of the databases are done regularly. You will have to create a new forum account and you should be all set.

Flywheel Puller

Hi. This question has probably been answered somewhere on this site, so my apologies in advance. I have 1979 Suzuki GS1000 chain drive bike. My starter clutch is in need of replacement. I have removed the flywheel bolt but need a flywheel puller . It looks like the bolt that came out of the flywheel is a 16mm bolt. Can I use a longer 16mm bolt, screwed into the existing hole to remove the flywheel? Or do I need a 35 or 38 mm puller for the larger threaded portion of the flywheel? or can either way work to remove the flywheel?

Gs 1000 ,right ?
you need the puller that screws on the larger threaded hub..this has its own bolt to push on crank end. An impact wrench makes the job easier
 
Yes, GS1000...changed it in my post, thanks tom203. That's exactly what I needed to know. You don't happen to know the size of the threaded hub? 35mm, 38mm, 40mm?
 
You can remove the rotor/flywheel using a long bolt. The swingarm bolt for example. If you search ebay for "GS1000 flywheel" and you will find lots of different puller options.
 
I just did this and bought the tool. All you need is the cheap tool that is essentially a bolt.
See Ebay Amazon etc.

An impact driver helps.
