Rotor puller

[brettp]

Anybody find a 17mm bolt that works as a rotor puller? Ace hardware and home Depot don't have that size

Try your rear axel. Same thread.

Thanks, Brad! I have heard that from you and another person so it must be legit. I appreciate it!

I know you said in another thread that it's a pain in the butt on your bike, but that's what you already have on hand. Otherwise you'll have to order a puller.

Why is your exhaust in the way? Got some fancy custom long-muffler job?

No, stock mufflers but they won't come off the head pipes!

Ordered a rotor puller, comes in tomorrow. In the meantime, I have a buddy (acquaintance?) at the local powersports shop. I trailered the bike down there and in 5 minutes had it zipped off. I put the new one in, then put on the cover. Started the bike, and I get 14V at 3.5K RPMs. Not exactly 3K RPM, but doable.

That is much better than what you had!

Absolutely! $250 for it, though. Couldn't trust the evil bay stuff.
