TOPIC:

I just did the coil mod and shazam..we have lightning..followed by a cold front and rain when my rotor/stator exploded on the othe side. magnets all over the place...any way could some one please again share some insight into getting off the bolt for my rotor. I have two propane torches heating up the rotor..no luck and now the bolt is starting to strip (not there yet) going to try mapp and ,consider a dealer(I'm rural so thats a pain)...any other sugestions? any one welding (wrenches to the bolt)? and is it not cool to grind metal in this area wet with engine oil? this bolt has normal hand thread right?????
THANKS does anyone else wonder if GOD only wants them to work on the bike?

big ball bearing and steering head bolt.

I'm about to try this myself this week end to get to my starter clutch, hope it's not as hard as you make it sound.

Hello (WIREMAN) are you talking about getting the rotor off? with a ball bearing and puller of some sort? I cant even get the bolt off. HELP hit with hammer, impact driver, heat, soon mapp, WELD? dremel? what

"Hmmmm. Yes, yes... Hit it I would!"

Try a dull chisel and a mallet. Sounds crude, but I had to do it on my clutch to get that big nut off. The trick is to do it a little lightly until the chisel bites into the steel nut, that SMACK it with all you have. As long as they're not rusted together, it'll work everytime.

Make sure to aim the chisel in a twising manner an dnot towards the centre of the shaft. As well, look closely at thethreading to see which way it goes for sure.

HEY GUYS..THANKS I GOT THE BOLT OFF WITH A BFH, THREE TOURCHES AND A SIX FOOT PIPE ATTACHED TO AN IMPACT SOCKET....HOLY RED NECK!! THANKS FOR THE HELP!
