Seem to remember the early zx9's did have chain/sprocket on the end of cam shafts vs middle. Which seemed unusual and possibly unique, can't remember any other big racy 4's like that.

Hey does anyone have a pulley puller I can borrow? Strange thing happened to Nicoles Pathfinder, The pulley on the Harmonic Balancer fell off......Never seen this before on my end...Any way out of the 3 pulleys on the balancer the front 2 fell off. Need to pull the rest of it off and replace it. Got the whole think apart and the part will be in tomorrow, so looking to borrow it tonight & get it back tomorrow.

Thanks

I don't have anything that big, but a similar thing happened to my neighbors Nissan (or Honda) sedan. He wound up going to Autozone or Advance, told them what he was needing to do, and they gave him the tools to do the job. He had to put down a deposit, but got that back when the tools were returned.

That might be your best bet if some other inmate doesn't have what you need. Some pix of the remaining pulley might be helpful so folks can see just what your dealing with.

Got it thanks for the PMs everyone...

It's not as big of a job as I had stressed, just need the right tools & wait for parts...while waiting I ended up changing tranny fluid & filter, & flushing the radiator...it's expensive when you get bored..

Got the high bars reinstalled on the 250. Standing up will be a hell of a lot more comfortable next time I decide to explore the training grounds.... Probably after things dry out a bit so I'm not sliding around too much on my street tires. Still looking for a usable 16" front tire that will do better in dirt though.

Sic Semper Tyrannis: I sent you a PM about maybe working on some shorter dogbones. Hit me up any time!

Look forward to riding with you guys again.

You're right, it is probably too fast for me.

Had no idea they were punching out the little ninjette until my copy of Motorcyclist showed up today. They are having a small bike shootout that included it. I guess they didn't like the way the press fawned over the cbr250r.

I got stuck at work late. Got home at 8, pulled a 2 inch screw out of the back tire on the VW. I just went for a ride on the WR to check the speedo and odometer versus GPS. It is still way off like it was the other weekend. GPS says I went 4.4 miles, trip odometer says 11.1 miles. Speedo was of about the same. Time to do some math and figure out if I can correct it with the speedodrd.
