Remove flywheel/stator without special tools.

In this video I show how to remove the flywheel from a 1982 XR200R without using any special tools. I learned this trick from watching a video an lawnmowers from the davidsfarm youtube channel.

For an alternative method, you can also use the rear axle bolt to fit into the larger thread instead of the smaller M12, and then hit it in the opposite direction without the screwdriver. In this case though, it did not fit. I know this works for some XRs, but not mine.

Not real good advice...hammering on the end of your crank shaft is never a good thing and besides that hammering there can also create enough shock to de-magnetize your rotor..go ahead if you must and you may get lucky...but I do not recommend it.

@tbtires

Never really thought about that, but yeah, hammering on the crankshaft is not good thing to do since it could put a dent in the bearing races. Still, it's a good cheap trick if you don't have the right tools.

Hey is that a Honda 200X ATC???  I had one Exactly like it!

[cyrex686]

@Usernameinvalid16

The Honda ATC200X has almost the same engine as the XR200. In fact, the top end is exactly the same, other then paint colour.

if you happen to crack any of the magnets when you decide its a good ideal to strike it anywhere in that area by the flywheel and end up having to buy a new flywheel,you'll wish you had just used the correct tool

@Gigglyable yea it actually does ive done it plenty of times

[Gigglyable]

@Wheelie9341 that is if it has a hole on it, many i have worked on do not.

[Gigglyable]

@shadow0imposter No, it actually doesn't

[Gigglyable]

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOO Completely wrong unless you dont plan on using that engine for much longer! You could roach the bearings inside of the engine and possibly bend or twist the crankshaft which will throw your motor off balance causing it no to run good at all!

[gilessmokey]

most of these honda 200 have the same thread on the rear spindle as the internal threads on the flywheel made for removal, so that is what you use.

@forku2umf powerband ajusting tool? erm theres not a tool to ajust the powerband. i think you mean powervalve, but honda xr has always been 4 stroke, so they dont use powervalves

[forku2umf]

Not a stator. A stator is...stationary! Maybe that's why they call it a "stator". Don't "tap-tap-tap the bolt. One big hit! Tappy-tap ain't gonna do shit. Get some help to pry from 2 sides if possible. Just don't let this guy touch your engine. The correct puller is available. Try the Honda shop (I just love saying "Honda shop!") They may rent you theirs. Do NOT ask to borrow it without offering anything. Offer to pay for a rental. Ask to borrow his powerband adjusting tool, too. Please!

if u dont hav a puller y not jus buy a bolt that threads in? much easier and does the same as the puller
