This way is most likely less expensive in the long run and perhaps easier.
All this was discussed in the earlier thread on this subject.

While I was at my local indy that always has good stuff on the shelves...I saw he had some pulleys. I couldn't find a 30t or 31t but did find a 32t. Im sre if I had the time to go through his boxes I could find one cheap.

Yes I have the tool from Georges, but I don't plan on selling it. I have a list of people in line for me to help do this for them. I would recommend getting the tool and the pulley locking tool also if funds are available. George's has super fast shipping.
It too bad more of us don't live closer together so we could help each other out with tools ect..

So do you have one of the sockets and pilot that you got from George's garage? Want to sell it? Or did you figure out a trick to get that damn nut off of there? I was thinking of trying to find a huge 2.5" socket with a 6-point end on it that I could get a wrench around... and maybe drilling out the center some so that the pulley/sprocket shaft could fit through it... but... probably not a good idea or even likely I could find a socket like that. Gotta be a way... My pipe wrench wouldn't fit around the nut... and I need something I can use a torque wrench with to reinstall the nut... hmmm...

nice pics **** thanks,
never had mine down that far yet. But i got a question something i noticed in the pic and like i said never had mine down that far.
Look at the last pic and the swing arm bolt in the pic it looks off center to the hole is that normal or is the bushing wearing causing the shaft and nut to ride up high center.
Just curious here.

There's only right at about 8,900 miles on the bike. I sure hope that wouldn't wear out that quickly. Anyone?

It would be nice to say get a group of guys together, chip in and buy the 'one-use' tools. Then when each person is done with it, send it on to the next.
This tool falls into that, and also the cam tools (locking pin for tensioners, sprocket lock, bearing removal, bearing installer, cam press-in tool that protects the end of the cams; I don't remember what its called off the top of my head).
I've been thinking about this for awhile. I think most of us are trustworthy and would do the right thing. We could setup a group paypal account to buy the tools from. That would also aid in keeping track of who paid what.
