[QUOTE="escapefjrtist, post: 1427435, member: 238"] You're making this too hard 'mambo. It helps if you have a buddy/wife/SO to support the bars during the process. [LIST][*]Cover both sides of fairing with towels and remove the bars. I don't remember with the Heli if there's enough room for the large socket w/o removing the bars first. To remove the top clamp you'll need a 36mm socket. It's tight, removing won't effect bearing adjustment. Loosen that first, then pinch bolts for both fork legs. Once you loosen up zip ties, there's enough slack in the ignition switch wiring to lift and flip the triple clamp upside down. Remove switch bolts. [*]It helps if you have a small jack / wood block under the headers to just take pressure off forks. They'll spring a bit when the top clamp is removed. [*]Assembly is reverse beginning with ignition switch. You might need to slightly raise/lower jack to get forks to line up with clamp. [*]Tighten everything back to spec. Done, now crack open your favorite adult beverage to celebrate. [/LIST] ~G [/QUOTE]
