Have you loosened the set screw on the side of the gear?

This is a bit extreme but it will work. Clamp your pinion in a vice then with a punch or something similar pound your motor shaft out the bottom. This will kill your pinion but it'll get it off.

This isn't extreme and poses zero risk of damage.
The red one is $10 on Amazon but only good for smaller pinions. Like yours(not being punny).
For the bigger ones I grabbed a $15 puller from Princess Auto and ground the pin down to 5mm.
Both work like charms.
