I bought a cheap tool set to remove the ball bearings from the engine case (left picture). I totally regret it. It was a waste of money. The tool is from a much to soft metal and it bends while the bearing still sits tight. I now own a professional bearing puller that worked like a charm.

The engine case is open now and it looks like I did no damage. *Happy*

I will discard the wheel rims and buy new ones as re-chroming them would be more expensive and Radaelli rims are still available today. Thanks to Moto Italia I also now own a engine split tool.

Almost ready for splitting the engine.

Now tool for my Aermacchi-tool-collection. 🙂

Before disassembling. Rear wheel bearings: SKF 6204-2RS1
