You want one of these...

Really cheap, powered either by lighter socket or clipping onto a battery, so just take the seat off and clip it to the bike battery. 10 seconds and it's off.

I think your hypothesis about the sprocket also fitting a Honda or Kawasaki with a locking washer is probably correct.

Job done! It was a pig to get off and I resorted to someone standing on the back brake and used a long handled torque wrench as I didnt have anything else handy. Thanks for the help everyone
