here is a picture of the sub trans gears on my 84 big red 200es, I am replacing the cover with one from a parts bike. my problem is the bearing for the reverse shaft is frozen on the shaft, as you can see. whats the best way to get this thing off??? the cover It am replacing has the bearings already in it. I just want to get it off from that shaft, whats the best way?????/
Thanks in Advance!

Also tap the center shaft with a steel hammer not so hard as to mushrum it . It will pop off.

Brass, not steel. If the shaft is not hard enough, brass will mushroom in too. Use a puller.

I take things like that to my dealer and do it fast and cheap. Some people hate their local dealer but if get to know them it make way easier to handle problems. Good luck, Jeremy.

ok guys, got the bearing off (autozone 3 jaw small puller rental), just reassembled the sub transmission, and everything is shifting (high/low/reverse) smoothly without the engine running.
I am happy YAAAAAY! Like crank yankers yay!!!
thanks for the help peeps!
