Desperate..need bearing retainer removal tool!

toytuff
Greetings,

I am in desperate need of a bearing retainer wrench to install a new seal on the front wheel. Not sure of the size but a 19 inch front rim for a 1977 CB 750 K. I'm sure the wrench fit several years.

Happy to purchase from you if you have one or I can rent one with a PayPal deposit. I will return any tools sent me.

My project is on hold until I can find one. Any leads appreciated.

Thank you!

Try contacting a dealer.  If you have the part number (check the manual from the front page, here), you can very likely still order it from Honda.  Cheers!

Wish I could help but I do not have one. WHat a lot of people do is get a socket the right size then grind the edges to fit. I have heard of some people using a chisel and hammer to loosen that retainer. If careful, it works ok.
The ride IS the adventure. The destination is just to get gas!

Thanks everyone. Yeah, the local Harley shop put it in for me. Had to order a new one. You just can't punch them out without damage.
