Don`t try to beat the bearing out, unless you are looking for an excuse to buy a new inner primary cover...

There is a much easier way, and you don`t need a press.

You need a socket that has an outside diameter slightly smaller than the opening in the inner primary cover, this socket will push the bearing out.

You also need a socket with an outside diameter that is larger than the outside diameter of the bearing that is being removed.

A long bolt, a nut and some washers.

Put the large socket on one side of the opening (the side that had the snap ring), and the smaller socket on the other side, against the bearing.

Install a washer under the head of the bolt, and pass it through both sockets, install the nut on the bolt with a washer, and tighten it down.

When you crank the nut down on the bolt, the small socket will push the bearing out of the case and into the large socket.

No beating, no noise, no problem.
Awesome and I have the sockets and even the bolts and washers to do it.
