remove top clamp

Hi All,

Picked up a top clamp , drilled holes and installed bar clamps. Removing original top clamp and stopped. Is there a trick to getting that center cover over the hex nut off? Does it just pop off or screw off?

Thanks in advance

Pops right off with a "push-tight" interference fit. ;)

 

EDIT:

 

As I recall, there's no need to take it off, the triple-clamp will come off with it in place...

Hi All,

Got it!! I don`t know how that center cover comes off on other models but on my `02 LeMans it unscrews (counter-clockwise) and must be removed in order to lift off the top clamp. I even phoned a dealer (who shall remain anonymous) that also said to pry it off. Thank you all anyways. Does anyone have a set of clip-ons for sale from an earlier model where they attach below the top clamp?

Grazzi,ciao
