Anybody know anything about Kawasaki's

[Du-Rron]

I am looking for a Kawasaki Pulley Holder 57001-1572 and they are made out of unobtainium and I can't find one. There are a jillion 57001-1672 "ROTOR holders" out there on amazon and ebay. Is the 1672 an upgrade version of the 1572 that will fit the drive pulley of a VN900?

 

Or, has anybody worked on a VN900 and what did you use to hold the pulley? I won't use the belt and brake to do it.

 

Thanks!

I have a rotor holder for a KLR. It was made by a 3rd party so I have no idea if it will work on the VN900.

Du-Ron what are you trying to do? I had an 07 VN 900 and installed the rear overdrive pulley and later the front one. Now weather or not I can find pictures of the area your working in I dont know. I may have some notes or something around here. I also had to replace a stator on the thing as it went out about 35K.

I can get the nut off the drive pulley (front pulley on countershaft) using an impact no problem. I need to hold the drive pulley so I can get the nut back on and use a torque wrench on it. Was considering using a factory tool (pulley holder 57001-1572)... (I can get the "1672" off ebay for $40.00 but might not fit).. or making a barbaric bar like the one shown below, for about the same price in time and material. Or, if anybody had any tricks up their sleeve, might use their idea instead.

I think I just locked it up against a boss in case with a drift or something, then tightend down. A bar like your showing would be fine also imop
