Allows removal of the rivets which hold the plate onto the steering head. Instructions:

  • Place the tool inside the steering head.
  • It's helpful to shine a light up the steering head while you look down.
  • Feel around using the point to find the hole where the rivet is.
  • Use a 716 inch wrench to turn the nut and advance the point to push the rivet out.
  • You may want to put some tape over the outside of the rivet so it doesn't drop and get lost.
