    83 GS1100GK - Rear Wheel Damper Removal

    Hi!
    I need to remove the rubber dampers from a 1983 GS1100GK rear wheel. I have tried removing them with a straight rod, etc. without any success. Each of these is held tightly in its slot.
    I have tried using my slide-hammer bearing remover ... but the adapter is too big.
    Other than purchasing a smaller "needle bearing" adapter for my slide hammer, do you have any suggestions, tips, etc?
    Thanks!!!

    The 6 rubber things in the rear wheel that the hub/spline fit into? I dont know.

    But those are the same as in any 850G/GL, 1000G, 1100G/GL/GK. Not specific to 1100GK. (dont know about 650G).

    Other comment is that you may get more responce to this in the "technical" section. This "tips" section seems to have less activity, and is ment more for someone to post a tip of what they have found.

      Yes these are the 6 rubber dampers inside the rear wheel.
      I'll ask the question in the technical section.
      Thanks for the tip!
