The tool grabs the inner race of the bearing when pulling it out of the case.

Well, i think checking the bearing while inside the crankcase by using the crankshaft cannot tell you 100% of the condition of the bearing.
when i have a doubt about the condition i remove it and check it. However, most times, i replace it.Btw, i do the traditional way of heating
the crankcase, however with these tools you can replace a bearing very fast
at the track.
