Do not hit it w/ a rubber mallet!!!! The magnets will come loose, I have heard of alot of guys trying to do this, IT DOES NOT WORK!!
Get a puller. I have 2 different puller setups that I use. If the trike has a T3 stator you can go to an auto parts place and buy a cheep 3 bolt "Y" style puller, use some different bolts to thread into the 3 holes on the flywheel and some washers. It will work great if you take your time to get the bolts rite, long enuff to get good penatration into the flywheel w/o hitting the stator and short enuff to work the center press bolt w/o bending anything. If you have a KX flywheel you will need to buy a KX250 puller, I have not found a cheep way around it.

GOOD LUCK

I have a t3 flywheel puller somewhere, I got it from ex-tecate owner, he made it from aluminuim. He made a few of them and sold them. A y-type puller will work too, you gotta vary size of bolts.

I use a Y-type puller, works fine.
