SF1 750 Starter Clutch Removal

[Yogi]

Wondering if anyone has come up with a way to remove the Starter clutch freewheel on a SF1 750 twin when the 'special tool' for pulling it is not available - has anyone been able to do so using something readily available?

Appreciate any advice out there, folks!

Grind back the lugs of a standard puller so that it fits between the chain and housing. If there is any grip left in unit and the motor is in the bike I have found that removing the nut and giving the starter button a stab will loosen it off the shaft. Remember reverse thread on the nut.

Removed mine today without special tool. Tried jabbing the starter but that didn't work. Found an old two leg puller, ground down the "jaws" to suit, down up the screw, tapped end with hammer, bingo.

Hope that helps.
