stuck rear wheel drive hub - Val - 13-06-15
Hello,
I am trying to check the dampers on my rear wheel.
And cannot remove the rear sprocket coupling. It is stuck. In the parts catalog that is called rear wheel drive hub. Haynes manual calls it rear sprocket coupling. There are 6 drive hub dampers I want to check.
Any help is appreciated. Am I missing something?
I have removed the rear wheel and the sprocket coupling is supposed to get off. It is stuck, I mean like welded stuck. I have tried gentle hammering.
Any ideas?
cheers
Val

You need a decent sized piece of wood passed through from the other side using a club hammer and go round evenly like opposite then 90 degrees different then opposite etc. If it's that tight when you put it back together it might not close up that last little bit, the action of tightening the spindle will do the rest. Also if it's that tight there is probably not that much wrong with it wear wise.

I can imagine the rubbers possibly being shot if the bike was abused or raced, but when i compared my old to new i just couldn't tell any difference?

If the sprocket carrier isn't moving around the rubbers are probably fine. If you really want to get it off try standing on the rim and pulling up on the sprocket
