i guess i should specify more

when you take it off do you put the bike in gear or what?

cuz i cant get enough tension to get that nut off, had my back brakes on, and nothing and im not sure about putting it in gear but i imagine if i did it would just move the bike, or if you put it against something i would say its on there tight enough it will just spin the tires ya know

i read where somebody did it before with the spark plug wrench or somethign in the stock tool kit

but i couldnt figure out how that would work

i couldnt find that topic either. hopefully that person will see this soon enough

:D

from past experience your are basically PISSING UP A ROPE with out a impact.

 

its really hard to remove it. borrow one from a neighbor or shit take it to any shop or dealer of any thing like a car place and see if they can spin it off for you.

 

 

best of luck but is a bitch with out an impact

It is hard to do but I have done it without an impact. You will need a strap wrench and an extra set of hands. Have someone hold the flywheel tight as they can with the strap wrench and you take your socket wrench and a big mofo breaker bar and giv-r hell. ( My breaker is like 4 feet long ) Use the reverse process for putting it back on using a torque wrench. It can be done, just do it!!

Throw it in the back of your truck...take it to a local tire repair store.

 

It literally takes 2 seconds with a gun. Change it in the parking lot...set the air gap, then have them zap it back on. Give the mechanic a 5 or a 10 spot for a 6'er of beer...they'll more than be happy to oblige.

 

You'll spend less time doing that than the hard way, not to mention...you won't risk damaging it....

 

Good luck!

 

:cheers:
