1972 Front disck brake rotor bearing removal?

[Sgilliesjr]

Does anyone know how to remove the bearing from the front brake rotor? First bike I have ever seen with separate bearings for the rotor and wheel. I am assuming that the disk shaft, #27 in the attached photo, is pressed into the bearings, #21 in the photo, and therefore can be pressed out. Any guidance would be greatly appreciated.

If I can remember correctly, I just tickled mine with a hammer and a screw driver after generously spraying WD40 all over it!

Thanks for the reply, i will give it a shot this weekend.

After looking at your pics I would say yes, a bit of friendly persuasion should convince it to come out.
This set up was only used just in 72. In 73 they changed to a bolt on rotor.
