Just found this on eBay - never had to remove said gear myself but have read a few horror stories about its reluctance to remove itself... Ducati Primary Gear Puller-Part No. 887132092 | eBay
I took my stripped out bottom end (Ooer!) to a local backstreet garage after I had broken my puller trying to get the thing off, I think that they only charged me £10. Probably the way to go again.
Hydraulic puller? Hectic... There is no happy average with a Doocat, it will either fall off of its own accord when you dont want it to or you have to beat it off with Big Hammers. :biggrin:
Isn't that the truth! Apparently the guy at the garage said that he had to heat it up, before applying a hydraulic puller, and it went with a huge bang! Still, about 5000 miles after the engine rebuild, and its managed to stay put without further issues. Didn't have any hammers big enough to pull that off!
