I sprayed it and have it loose but it seems like when i goto pull it off it gets caught and wont go its kinda weird.

should slide off,are the flutes bent or marred in any way?

[trimoto55]

They don't look bent to me its really weird I was thinkin about maybe gettin a gear puller?

Can you turn the gear then slide it off? Just a thought. I wouldn use a gear puller, you should never have to. You may end up breaking something.

it wants to slide off then it catches and doesnt want to go

I had a dirtbike with this problem, it just needs to be persuaded off. is there a groove in the splines where the sprocket can move freely, but anything after that it just stops? if so just put s small piece of wood somewhere by it and pry it off with a screwdriver or something. worked for me :wondering:

Its the atc 185 the sprocket moves freely real loose then when i try to pull it off it stops and wont budge
