Z1e sells a tool for doing it,or you can use a rear axle and a decent sized ball bearing.
You might want to put a piece of copper or lead between the jaws on that vise and the counter weights on that crank,just saying :blink:

that little puller is never going to get the clutch basket off your crank, go return it and get a bigger one.
also I noticed there are little bolts in there did you see those?

:blush: Rotor Don... Clutch basket is on the end of the transmission input shaft buddy :) But you're right...that's really not the best tool for the job.

you should take your starter and clutch to a machine shop and get that on a hydraulic press.

if you remove the bolt that holds the starter clutch to the crank, you should see another set of threads in the starter clutch itself, 15mm x 1.50 I believe, I can check. I use a grade 8 bolt, there is a tool sold for this but I have stripped them. Thread the bolt in, use a good impact and it should come off.
They can sometimes be difficult. Good luck,
