Desperately Seeking an Air Gun...
 

Anyone in Essex or the surrounding area with an air gun or access to one that I can use to get the slipper clutch out of my bike?

Let me know!

lol, saw the thread title and thought you wanted to shoot some rats. Was going to offer the use of my air pistol :lol:

Antony,

Have you tried a clutch holding tool and long wrench?

If its any help will bring homemade holding tool to Army & Navy tonight. I am assuming the slipper uses standard plates.

Cheers Jamie, but I've already got a Walther P99 to keep the cats out of the garden!

I've also got a clutch holding tool (two in fact!) that are made from 5mm thick steel but still bend under the strain!

I've spoken to TecMoto and Wayne says the only way it's coming off is with an air gun :(

What was it torqued up to then when fitted?

186Nm as per the manual.

The problem with a slipper is that it does it's job with "popping out" when you lock the back wheel and try to undo the nut - basically turning the engine over!

The clutch holder is 1m long and the break bar is the same.

No joy though :(

I have a air gun and the compressor to run it but think i may be to far away for you Fanrnborough, Hants

I am on holliday this weak and im going away on from wed to sat back about 9pm. any time otherwise. ps do you want to do the work here, as the compressor is a bit big to move

well we may just be able to fit it in im here till 4pm on wed. and yep it should go in a van. but when you gonna bring it back:sniff:
