and how do I remove it without an impact wrench?



The frame gets in the way of using a crescent wrench and socket or 2 crescent wrenches

extension? looks like the chain will have to come off first?????

I took the rear wheel and sprocket off. The chain isn't holding anything

humongous 8 point socket?

Look at threads, put the right size wrench on it,turn motor over with ignition

that won't work

think about it

does your manual say what the torque spec for it is?

6/26/2011 8:08:35 PM

it's supposed to be 92

How do you remove it without an impact wrench? You borrow an impact wrench.

or a 30" breaker bar apparently lol

I put an 8 foot long pipe on mine and couldn't crack it, but it had been sitting for a few decades. A good impact wrench spun it right off. Took two of us to hold the bike down though.

Call me stupid but I am thinking about it. If its like a crank bolt on a car and it just turns the motor over it will work. If the bold just won't turn then heat the bitch up. I've never had a bolt whoop my ass so this won't be a problem.

if you turn the engine over while pulling the other way, you'll just tighten it more, assuming right hand threads, right?

that's the thing. different years have different threads. It spins freely so I can't tell which way to turn it

6/27/2011 3:20:18 PM

I'd ask a mechanic how they get it off

6/27/2011 3:26:06 PM

I'd imagine that in the absence of a locking mechanism, it's threaded such that the engine torque applied to it tightens it.
