Hmmmm another RGV problem thread...
On the off chance does anyone know any tricks for getting the fly wheel off, other than a puller?

If there is some tapped holes in the flywheel a plate and slide hammer is your best option.

use a puller or risk f*&^%ing the flywheel and even worse,the crank.

Right got it taken off by a mechanic, which was a bitch of a thing for even them to pull off.... the magnets had delaminated and destroyed the charging system......sigh.....whole new flywheel for me :crybaby:
Anyone know of anyone with a 89 RGV250K flywheel?

No, but if you need to deal with a wrecker, don't waste your time getting jerked around by the local dicks.
Victorian Motorcycle Wreckers in Ausie are bloody excellent.

No, about the same.
And on the positive side.
1) Much quicker.
2) Excellent stock.
3) Not too lazy to get off their arse and check before saying no.
4) Honest - i.e. they fuck it up (once only mind you) they simply sent the correct one no question.
5) Easier to contact as they actually keep regular hours.
