The rocker spindle tool is easy to find. I am also here in the U.S. So I got one from Commandospecialties.com for $18.00 I think. "Every job has a tool" to quoat one of our learned members & I know I will use it again as time goes by. In this thread back in November I origionaly was asking a safe way to push one of my spindles in just a touch to help the gasket seal but later I found that one spindle was to far IN and the fingers on the cover plate could not engage. This was a worse problem so I bought the pulled tool to do it right. Money is getting tight but I have never regretted buying a correct tool so I don't make things worse.

You probably want to go into town, and find a up to date Jap Bike store,
With a full spares department, a clean workshop, and kean young mechanics.
And ask them if theres a Grumpy Old Bloke out in the Hills, who knows how to fix Real Motorcycles.
