I'm trying to pull all my parts off my 696 to send to the powdercoater and I'm stuck on the top triple. How the heck do I remove it? Do I need to loosen the steering stem nut? And if so, do I need a special tool for that? Any help would be appreciated.
Actually, I should have just looked in the manual before asking this question. I missed one of the screws on the back of the triple which is why it wasn't budging when I hit it with a rubber mallet. Problem solved.
