The only way I would get one from a dealer is if I absolutly needed it. Let us know how much they want for one.

Expect to pay at least twice as much for it at the stealership, but if you are in a pickle, youre in a pickle! New flywheels are way outrageous.

May not be to bad considering he is in a pinch and he would have to pay shipping from somewhere else. BUT he could get some other goodies shipped and the same time. :wink:

Cant you also screw your crank up by using the wrong puller that is what i have been told,if heard you can make the crank pin slip out of phase especially if it is not welded.

jeff that one of the best tools i have bought and hey it was here in 2 days so its worth the wait for me

[TJScott]

well, it certainly couldnt be more irritating than the damn 3 arm one

I just worked on a bike that the guy decided that he could pull the flywheel with a 3 jaw puller.....(enter dumbass comment here) he managed to bend and mushroom the end of the crank bad enough that we had to machine the end of the crank to get the nut back on when putting back together.

 

the other problem i have seen with flywheel pullers (factory style) is that when you use it make sure you get it threaded in all the way or a long way, I have had to use a jaw puller on one occasion where somebody had ripped the threads out of the flywheel, The other time I had to install the puller as far as I cold then tack weld it in to the flywheel to get it off.....pain in the ass...
