So I'm researching this issue and look up the tool. I find a Kawasaki FDM from 2006. Seems they had/have the same issue on the VN2000. Why didn't they redesign it for the 1700 3 years later.

Also looks like the 57001-1672 may also work for this. Seems the 1572 is spec'ed for the 900 also. Someone couldn't find one and got a 1672 for cheap($40) and it fit and worked properly. Maybe a Kawasaki updated tool.

Yes, I came across this part # 57001-1672 too and wondered too. Visually comparing the size of bracket that accepts the handle to the circumference of the tool it appears similar/same to 57001-1572 and may work? I've ordered Jim's Sprocket tool however.
I would like to point out the additional handle is about $40 and brings the total to about $100 US. It's not worth saving $50 compared to $150 for Jim's Sprocket tool IMO and just want to change the washer and hopefully, be done. I did get a $10 wedge to see if this would work for the one's who want to cheap out. Quote:

Great info on doing the re/re + examining sprocket and shaft!

The Jim’s tool has a set screw to lock it to the sprocket (for Harley) but I found the tool works fine on Kawasaki without using the set screw.

So I pulled the front sprocket off last night - didn't need Jim's sprocket tool or an impact/long-bar cause the only thing holding it on was the bent tab washer. I could spin the nut off with one finger... My splines are okay and will have a spare replacement tab washer in tool box going forward.

You are very lucky you caught it before the spline was ruined.

So I put it back together! My bike had 50K miles (80K kms) and while I couldn't feel play in the pulley, the nut was finger tight only.

Inner cover and clutch slave cylinder bolts are torqued to 12 nm, or 106 in.lbs. Not ft.lbs.

knew something wasn't right... I need to wear my glasses more as my eyes are getting worse. I edited my previous post so others don't misread as I did.

So Lumberjack the one you purchased from Jim's was it the #2260 sprocket tool?

Yes, you could order it at Fortnine but I sourced it locally for $209.
https://fortnine.ca/en/jims-sprocket-locker-2260 I just noticed their picture shows a thumb screw which is MUCH better than the bolt with plastic knob what was broken on mine. QUOTE=ballbreaker;725476]So Lumberjack the one you purchased from Jim's was it the #2260 sprocket tool?[/QUOTE] |

Thanks for the info Lumberjack. Will check it out. Was also looking at George's Garage as well.
