Got a question.

I'm stripping my bike for the powdercoater, but i have no idea on how to remove the triples trees.

Top one: How do i remove the ignition? I dont see any bolts and on the botom there seem to be 2 rivets or something like that.

Bottom one: No clue what so ever on how to remove it.

Any tips? (maybe with pictures)

Its a special fastener that the head shears off of at a predetermined torque. you have to drill those out. very simple

the steering stem needs to be pressed out of the lower triple. not a difficult job...only you need a hydraulic press to do it.

Dont have a hydraulic press, so i'll leave it in out:

Are you powder coating the triples? there is a dust seal on the lower bearing that will melt in the curing process and must be removed by bearing puller or hydraulic press.
