Anyway, I put a small patch of rubber on each contact point of a household G-Clamp and it worked first time!! All I have to do now is find a damned rotor-puller. 20mm thread I think. Anyone got one??
UPDATE:
Just found an old 20mm oil-filter bolt (from the CB250 itself) and used that as a rotor puller. Worked a treat! I like finding things around the garage that can be made to do the job of an expensive "Special Tool" like the £36 "07733-002-0001" from David Silver.
Just for the search engines...
How do i remove the rotor from my Honda CB250N Superdream? Honda Part No : 07733-002-0001 CB250N Superdream "Rotor Puller Tool" can be replaced with a cheap oil-filter bolt from a CB250N Superdream.

Nice bit of Macgyver Tom.
MadDogMcQ, sorry to ask again, but I think my previous post went unnoticed:
What exhausts have you put on your cb250? Are they original?
I bought replicas at wemoto.co.uk some time ago (probably the same as offered on davidsilverspares) but my local mechanic has doubts concerning the internal pattern (being too restrictive).
Sorry mate - didn't notice a post about exhausts. The silencers are original Honda parts found on eBay. I would have been quite happy to use the Wemoto pattern parts though. I think your mechanic is OVERLY concerned about them.
Wow, original exhausts, I'd kill for that! (not literally ofc). I also bought the collector box and downpipes from wemoto but had to return the pipes because they wouldn't fit. So I'm a bit wary of non-Honda parts.
Anyway, good luck with the rotor reassembly!
Good news indeed :)
... and I was just about to mail you and ask how you were doing. Heres hoping you get sorted sooner than later
I am also looking for a local mechanic to install spark plugs in my vehicles. I have surfed a lot for a local mechanic but didn't found the required results. Please do share some experienced local mechanic for me.
