Alot of that stuff isnt necessary and what you do need ou can borrow from autozone(they have a toll rental program).

no autozone in hawaii and these tools are necessary. crankshaft can't just come out, putting it back in is almost impossible without the crankshaft puller. it is extremely difficult to remove the flywheel without the right tool not to mention dangerous and you run the risk of doing more damage than good. i just want to know where i can get these special honda factory tools.

dude, i'm talking about factory tools. i know they make um. i've seen them in action. i also know that there are companies out there that make spcial tools just for this specific bike. i know a guy who has them. the reason i am asking for help is because i can't get in touch with him.

your in the honda capital of the USA. Im sure one of the moped shops near you has them, i mean, you should go ask around and see if they will do some sort of retail system or something.
