ARD Magneto removal help

I am removing the ARD magneto ignition from my 1976  KZ900 project and wondering if anyone can help me with final steps.
I am attaching some pics:
 

I have removed the spring clip and a washer off of the end of last pictured area and just wondering how to proceed with removing rest?
do I need some kind of "flywheel puller" ?
thanks in advance for your help

Isn't that just what the end of the crankshaft looks like?  I think you're done removing things...  Here is a random picture from Ebay of a Z1 crank.

The snap ring holds the bearing cage on the crank. Your as far as you go. From here you can put stock or Dyna S on.

Nothing more to remove on the crank end! You need only the ignition engine case, cover, gasket and oil seal.
A ignition advancer unit, bolt and nut is also needed for the conversion.
