    I had the same trouble when I was working on my bike. I could get everything off bar the magneto, so I took it down to the local bike mechanic and he got it off for me. Only cost me $5 and did not damage it, as I likely would have

    The proper puller is $10-20, depending on where you are. Considering the cost of replacing crank and rotor if you f' it up...

    The magneto is on a tapered bush. Almost impossible to get off without the proper puller. I borrowed one from the bike shop when i overhauled my sons 2 stroke bike and I had to get gas onto the bush as well. Nearly busted the tool.

    It is just like the cutting plate on the lawn mower, they don't want them to come loose.
