Clutch hub nut removal

What i did was jam a piece of 1/8" flat steel about 1" wide by about 4" [more or less] long between the two sprockets. Then a 1/2" drive socket with a 4' long pipe as an extension, and it came off quite easily.

I know this is an old thread, but for the sake of clarity, both nuts on the Gearbox main shaft that the clutch runs on are left hand thread. Clockwise to undo.
The nut that holds the clutch basket assembly and the front pulley nut with the retaining plate are not normal threads.
The nut that holds the clutch basket assembly and the front pulley nut with the retaining plate are not normal threads.
On the IronHead engine all shafts, nuts and bolts are normal threads. There are no "left hand threads" on any shafts, nuts or bolts in this engine.
On the other hand, in the pinion gear and shaft assembly in the electric starter system, the shaft and the corresponding nut have a left hand thread. See page 4-22 of 99484-78 and 5-7 of 99484-85.
Thank you for the opportunity to once again clear up this misconception.
