1976 cb400F generator rotor puller size
ka-ja:
Hi,
Rotor tool on ebay under honda 400/4, but I have seen cranks out of cases with rotor still on---ken
hairygit:
Yes you can remove the crank with the rotor on, but it needs to come off to fit a new oil seal (don't think it looks okay I'll use the old one, It WILL leak, and that means engine out and strip again :'() If the engine is still in the bike, stick it in gear and get someone to hold the back brake on, that will hold the crank while you undo the bolt, which is normal thread ie anticlockwise to loosen ;D

OK .. thanks .. hmm ... motor is on a bench (without the top half) - but it sounds like I need to remove the rotor - but at least I know the correct direction (many thanks) - just need to find a soft way to stop the crank turning ...
Bryanj:
If you cant undo the bolt holding the rotor, put it in the boot of the car and go to your nearest tyre fitting emporium and ask a numpty nicely to use an air gun with apprpriate socket.
DayvW:
Excellent - thanks Oddjob - but wouldnt the extension bar damage the conrod eye - or am I needlessly worrying (I guess I must be if you've used this technique)?
