nc30 hub rear hub removal

[pugparcels]

ok have just put the bike up on my abba stand and removed the rear wheel, come to remove the nut over the sprocket and f~?k me is it tight. i have lifted up the little tab as it says in the haynes manual but i cannot get it to budge have now covered it wd40 and will leave over night but is there any tricks to removing it? will try to find a fat mate to sit on the bike whilst i try again but is there something im missing in the process?

all threads look ok nothing crossed etc could just be tight from time but if there is anything i am missing would be really grateful

You'll just need a breaker bar for greater leverage.

good suggestion, ive only got about 2 foot length at the mo, another couple would make life far easier!

raining in gloucs? pissing down in worcs!

Aye its been proper shite this afternoon, hows the progress coming on the project bike? I like to see people trying different things and good luck getting it all sorted.

that one is usually mad tight allright, but the other one is even tighter to remove the hub!!
you need to get more leverage. when i was looking to gain leverage i found a pair of garden shears had hollow handles and put them over the end of the short breaker bar.
its worth a dry looking around and seeing if you have some hollow things around the garage

To undo the Larger nuts on my NC30 Bike, and the HUB nut in particular, i used a 4 foot hollow piece of box section which is actually used as a towing link when your car breaks down. LOL Comes in very handy on those tuff nuts!

theres no reverse thread on this nut or anything?

will have a look for a extension of some sort later. the project is coming on - our second kiddy was born last friday so very little has been done since then or the bike or anything else to be honest! i am managing to grab an hour roughly each night now but not enough to get huge amounts done.

she is now only 7 days old but already costing me a fortune -
