Hi, Who will lent me his/her special tool to remove the flywheel nut. The tool will hold the rotor and stop it from turning. I live in Haarlem in the Netherlands. If not, how knows where to buy? Many thanks Joep |

To remove the nut you don`t necessarily need the tool. If you have an impact wrench you can use that. (Supermarkets and car shops sell 12V impact wrenches for 20-30 Euros once in a while). Of course you cannot use that for assembly ! According to the Haynes manual you can also put the bike in high gear and hold the rear brake to loosen and tighten the nut. Not sure if I would do that as it puts a lot of stress on the gearbox. At least I wouldn`t recommend to do this more often. If you are a customer from Startwin, Biggelaar or some other shop I would ask there if they may lend you the tool on a weekend, maybe for some small fee. http://www.sd-tec.de/catalog/product_in ... ef37315e07 G. |

Many, many thanks, I have used an air impact tool but it didn't loosen the nut... Or does it take a while? Somebody suggested heat and an impact tool. But as always I'm afraid to demolish some other part(s) so I'll hope not to burn the engine. Thanks again for your help. |

heat won`t be necessary. I don`t know how strong your compressor is and what torque your impact tool reaches with the pressure given from your compressor. If you have a 25l air compressor like I do it`s 8bar max and the constant pressure it can deliver is maybe 6. No clue if that is enough. My 12V impact wrench that I use for changing wheels on the car revvs up and then "hits". It may take 3-4 hits until the wheel nuts come loose and those are tightened with 120NM. I don`t recall exactly but the flywheel nut is somewhere around 140-190NM so it sits very tight. (btw does the nut have right or left hand thread?) G. |

Yes got the nut off!!! No special tool just patience and heat (to weaken the Loctite bond). I did use the air impact tool and some heat and cool down cycles. FYI: The compressor I used had 7 bar. The tool has the following specs: working pressure 6 bar, 360 l/min, 345 Nm Now the next step is to change to another flywheel for a Kokusan ignition and tightend the nut again. Does anyone knows which Loctite to use? Paso 750, I think i might need the special tool after all in order to tightend the nut. Many thanks for your feed back and www links to the tools. Cheers Joep |

A little late into this thread  Loctite generally can be softened with a heat gun or hair dryer. It takes about 400F(204C) Propane can be used as a last resort away from anything remotely flammable. Take your time and use an impact gun while its hot. Clean all the treads with a wire brush before re applying any loctite products |
