The snap ring, which must be removed, will require the large size pliers. Most people get them at a Harbor Freight store (cheapest price for one time job).
Thanks for the reply. Notes taken. I had already picked up the c-clip pilers and chain breaker from Harbor Tools as per Barnone.Quote:

But at 40 it was winding out. 80 more miles to go under 40 mph. I won't make it.
Last week I took up some drag bars and a rear 38 tooth sproket to be powder coated. Said they would be ready by Monday. Well I didn't get up there until Thursday. When I walked in and ask for them I got a strange look and, oh, they're not ready yet. I'm like I am four days late picking them up and you tell me they are not ready yet? I took the sprocket with me, I am going to run it chrome. What a difference the 38 tooth sprocket makes. I took out two links of the chain with this. I think I am going to love this bike. At 55 mph the motor just purs, speed limit is 55 around here anyway.The next day I went to pick up the drag bars, when I asked them how much. Free of charge. :pirate3:
I never seen so many people take double looks before, it's like what am I seeing? lol. Parked on the street a dude walks by and says cool looking bike, is that a Harley? What year is it? I said no it's a China Moto 2011. He looked at me like I was just giving him some bull. I said no really. He said well it is a cool looking bike anyway. I found out why the front tire was losing air. The inlet valve in the stem was loose. Two minute fix.
I have a lot of questions for you guys. They will come up in following posts.
