I just got my rebuilt crank back today.    John Ritter did the work. 

I am not sure how busy he is.  He is a member here.  Check out the "General Services for Hire" section of the forum home page.

It was easy conversing with John about the process.

Apparently it sold.  That was fast.

Not mine.

It is all about timing.  I have been to Havasu four times this past year.  Going to be near there again in July.   Never the right time.

Doesn't look to bad at all.

Nice bike.  At 60 hp, must be a blast to ride! 

I wonder how much it will go for?

Hey Mike.

Thanks for the suggestion.  Next time I am at City Mill, I'll buy one.

Got it!

I had to back it off a couple of times and try again, but it came off.  Thanks Mark.


RDryan-Thank you for the advice too.  I am going to add that bolt to my HVC list.

General Chatter / Rotor puller recommendations

I was hoping someone could recommend a good rotor puller for a daytona.

 I tried the uppermost engine mounting bolt with an impact with no success.  I am afraid I my mess something up if I keep trying with the engine mounting bolt.

Any suggestions?

Thanks

Garrett rebuilt my 85 rz engine and is currently rebuilding my 84 rz.  I have never actually spoken with him, however, he has always answered my emails.
