Post by dodds »

I'm just about to take my forks off but wanted some advice on how to remove the Ignition switch/barrel first as i'm going to sell them and want to split the parts, cheers

Neatest solution (but I couldn't manage it) is to drill a small dent in the bolt underneath.
You can then get a centre punch and drift teh bolt undone

However, after giving up on this idea after twatting my thumb three times I cut a slot in the head of it (try a dremel to avoid damaging the yoke) but I used a hacksaw
Then undo it with a flat blade screwdriver
