Hi Greg
You need to compress the spring to get the circlip off and it will come apart. My evil twin made me a tool to do it, G man posted another method but I can't find it, maybe you could chime in Graham. Cheers Al.

I've just made the MkII version of my compressor. Still not perfect and rather scruffy-looking in the pictures but I just dismantled five Honda kickstartes with it. The bush is for smaller kickstarters.

With the rubber removed the tool slips over the pedal

Once on the pedal the bolt is tightened and compresses the spring allowing you to safely prise out the spring clip.

Great tool.
Mine does the same compression but a different tool and application. ..lm

Thanks Graham,

A neat tool and the pictures also show me the clip so I know what I am trying to get at.
