Removing throttle assembly from clip-on

I've started removing the clip-ons on my M750 to put taller bars back on.  However, I can't figure what I'm doing wrong when removing the throttle assembly or throttle tube from the right clip-on.

Everything else is loose, even the back half of the throttle assembly is off.  It won't budge.

Here's where I have gotten to






I can't find anything else to loosen.

How does this come off?

Thanks!

It kinda just gets pressed on from being tightened down to the bar. Use the plastic end of a screwdriver and tap the other end with a hammer. Should come loose with a couple taps then just slide the tube right off.

Thanks!  That worked great!  I was afraid to impact it before I knew I had gotten everything loose ~

Yeah, no problem.   [thumbsup]

Same thing happened to me a while back when I switched as well.
