as KK would say " you dont need one of those you poof"


just a hammer and a piece of steel will do the trick

Most essential item in the mechanics tool kit. A BLOODY BIG HAMMER

Most essential word in the mechanics vocabulary. Judicious.

Personally I just give the wheel a farking good kick in the right direction. Works for me.

Doesn't work with the single sided swingarms on the honda's. You need to turn the cam. VFR750 had a special tool in the tool kit.... Hitting with hammer and drift will work but is a bit cavemanish....
Mini-me....Have you priced one from a honda dealer??
Only 16.99 pounds sterling on ebay. (about $45) Try your dealer.

ok so heres my idea, NC30s are the worlds favourite bike, well around these parts they are fairly common, and as can be seen from the pic the toll aint exactly complex

So if someone on here has one we could borrow it for an afternoon, take a template and make a few of our own from some steel or similar, expected costs are

Labour at 5 hours free
Borrowing someone elses tools free
Using free steel from work Free
useful tool for all priceless

Could you just use a single point c-spanner? You can pick those up from the toolshed at a reasonable price.
