    A note to old forum members...
    I receive numerous requests from people who can no longer log in because their accounts were deleted. As mentioned in the forum FAQ, user accounts are deleted if you haven't logged in for the past 6 months. If you can't log in, then create a new forum account. If you don't get an error message, then check your email account for an activation message. If you get a message stating that the email address is already in use, then your account still exists so follow the instructions in the forum FAQ for resetting your password.

    Have you forgotten your password or have a new email address? Then read the forum FAQ for details on how to reset it.

    Any email requests for "can't log in anymore" problems or "lost my password" problems will be deleted. Read the forum FAQ and follow the instructions there - that's what we have one for...

  • Returning Visitors

    If you are a returning visitor who never received your confirmation email, then odds are your email provider is blockinig emails from our server. The only thing that can be done to get around this is you will have to try creating another forum account using an email address from another domain.

    If you are a returning visitor to the forum and can't log in using your old forum name and password but used to be able to then chances are your account is deleted. Purges of the databases are done regularly. You will have to create a new forum account and you should be all set.

GS1000E Rotor Removal

  • Thread starter Thread starter gs79
  • Start date Start date
I am a bit concerned, cleaned the crankshaft end and also the internal taper of the rotor and slid the rotor onto the crankshaft but Adrian mentioned that it should grab to a tight fit,enough to get some movement on the crank without even tightening the bolt. I can rotate the rotor with very little grab on the crankshaft. Is this okay?

If I replace the rotor bolt and tighten just with engine compression resistance and then loosen the bolt I do need some help with the puller to remove.
 
you should be ok with that, i would just add a touch of loctite bearing fit on the crank just for extra piece of mind
 
What tool do you guys use for restraining the rotor to get the rotor bolt fully torqued down and where would I be able to get one from.
 
use the same method as used in removing it. stick it in 5th gear, get someone to stand hard on the rear brake, that should be enough to hold it
