Rubber Dead Blow, just a couple light taps on each side and it fell off.  You can also wait until you have the crank out and tap it off then.
" Why does anyone get offended by what someone does to their own bike? I dont get it. "

You made me think about it after I cheered knowing someone else would like to know what these control freaks are up to.
 Every time any owner strips whatever precious Honda part the horrified purists parts go up in value. That's not the part that bothers them.
 What bothers them is they sat up late at night, their breast full of wonder and estrogen, unable to sleep, dreaming about their lovely darling and all her glory... and next thing you know someone else doesn't share their emotional deluge and their reaction is they must spread their mind museum as far as they possibly can, taking over as much of the real world as possible.

Looks sorta like a bolt, has fine threads and a big hex head end for the wrench.  An impact is sweet for this and will save some extreme torque efforts.  They sell universal kits with several sizes, give us the bike and someone will no doubt know the tool, and number with link.  I just ate, and am sleepy or I would assume a 750 and get it for you.

Illrational: You can use the rear axle or your oil filter bolt to remove the rotor.....same threads. Just snug up the bolt...give it a good bong with a hammer...should pop right off?
The right pullers are only about $10.00 or $15.00?...any motorcycle shop can get them.
The puller threads are 18mm X 1.5 or 20mm x 1.5...can't remember exactly....comes with age!!!
