[montsta56]

Hey
Im trying to remove the flywheel cover on a KLf300 I'm having trouble removing the bolt that holds the flywheel/Pull start gear on. Any Idaes I've tried heat rattle gun universal flywheel holder ect. The hard bit is holding the pull start gear with out damaging it whilest trying to undo the bolt???? Any Idea's.
cheers

Its not something silly like a backward thread? rattle gun should get it i would have thought.

Very good suggestion from Barty! Check this first!

But just to add I've had to take mine with the correct sockets down to the tyre place and use their's as my compressor and gun just wasn't grunty enough!
One pull of the trigger and done!!

Yeah I tried Reversing it.Maybe my compressor is grunty enough either might have to take it down to the bike shop.

the instructions that come with steahly flywheel weights recommend putting a soft rope down the spark plug hole to lock prevent the piston from moving, therefore enabling the flywheel nut to come undone
