clutch sleeve hub tool

[nutsandbolts]

Hey all,
Anyone know where you can get a clutch sleeve hub tool to hold the hub while removing the nut?
thx

Dont need one..a few quick trigger snaps with an air impact and its off. Or an electric drill with the impact feature will do also. I should note that youll need a 1/2 inch chuck to put the extention in the drill for the socket......

And for those without a power impact...

Weld a rod onto an old steel clutch disc...

(Or get an impact...it is the easy way)

Ive snapped them loose with the hand held smack it with the hammer ones as well.

Somebody with a welder should make a bunch of the home-made ones and sell them cheap to loyal GSR members.

Made me this using a bicycle chain stay...

Unless i am not mistaken..theres a few holes in the outer half of the basket that you can put something like an allen wrench thru and lock the inner hub against it..that will also be a good trick to hold it so one can use both hands on a ratchet..

Thanks guys,
I'll try the impact as I have one. Just wasn't sure it would work.
I second that idea for someone with a welder making up cheap tools for us GS members. I'd pay $25 for one.

This item has not been addressed yet, so here goes:

The way I do it is to put the transmission in the highest gear available, 6th on my bike probably 5th on most other bikes. Lock the back wheel by applying the brake and with a 24mm socket unscrew the large clutch nut.

Or if the engine is out of the frame wrap a towel around the inner basket and jam it against the outer and crack the socket with a sharp tap.

Is this a 2 man task? Do you apply the brake with your foot? I guess since the brake pedal and the clutch cover are on the same side, with a little coordination, 1 man can do it.

Especially one man with an impact.

I've also just jammed the wheel with a piece of wood since the brake was off on one bike(obviously not a wire spoke wheel).

I wondered about that. Didn't know if it might possibly damage the wheel.
