With tapers often a sharp tap with a hammer while under puller pressure does the trick, I do mean "sharp tap" not "whelt the living crap out of it".

Took a fair amount of heat and a good few taps (naughty I know but needs must. lol) to get my mk1 rotor off. Helps if the puller is perfectly positioned, if it's slightly off centre it won't do the job as easily.

Yes, say a prayer this morning before you attempt to pull it off, seems some peeps have more trouble than others and to answer your question, no those 3 screws hold in the back plate which will come off with the rotor, you may expect a rather large bang..

Mine broke my puller. I took it to a bike shop, and it broke their puller.
But the only reason I was removing it was to get a good view of the keyway so that I could line the crank up in the proper position before reassembly, and I could actually see the keyway when I removed the bolt, so I winged it and put it all back together.

After being told you can split the cases without removing the balancer shafts, that's what I did. Maybe my puller wasn't up to the job because one of the ears started cracking and that's with heat, tapping with hammer, swearing in three languages. I'd still like to take the stator off as I want to be able to spin the crank on lathe on something to clean a big end journal which spun the shells and caused the engine to seize. At least now I know if I ever have to take my own engine apart, the first thing I'll do is get a heavy duty puller or take it to a garage and get them to take stator off.

Just to save possible embarrassment at a garage, the part attached to the crank is the rotor. The stator is in the side cover which goes over it. Together the stator and rotor form the alternator (which produces an alternating voltage). The rotor rotates, the stator is static, that's how I remember it anyhow

That's probably why I couldn't get it off!;I'm swearing at the wrong part! Thanks for the heads-up.

You will need the rotor off for when you reasemble as you wont be able to see the alignment marks for the top balancer shaft with it still in place,if I remember correctly,

That was my fear too, but I managed to see the keyway under the bolt and calculated the positioning relative to that. I got away with it but it's not ideal

Clever fecker would have worried me that I had got it wrong.
