[QUOTE="BlackLightning998, post: 4297, member: 109"] [b]Thanks Len - and now for the next step.......[/b] Len, thanks for the advice. PD16 is on and the nut is now fully home with some "frequent" locktite, battery's on charge so all being well in a couple of hours I will take it for a spin. Thanks to Bruce for sending details of the "little puller". So the next question for the Forum is - how do you take the dynamo off if the PD16 collar is on a taper fit. I'd have thought I slacken off the mounting cradle bolts and simply pull it/slide it towards the gearbox side - but I am guessing it is not that straightforward? I would think that even the gentlest of tap on the end of the armature shaft will be exactly the wrong this to do and cause real damage given the tolerances of the arnature spinning in the housing. I'm sure many members will have done this job many times - here I am once again as a spanner wielding novice not wishing to damage anything, later on I'll find time to read the books - but advice eagerly sought and gratefully received. Thanks to all who've replied so far. Cheers Stuart PS - Really looking forward to the Shadow Anniversary Event at the Ace Cafe tomorrow - weather is looking hot and sunny like last year - watch the Forum for some new pictures tomorrow evening.
