Ignition barrel removal


 

Hi All,
?
can anyone with how to remove the ignition barrel from the yoke? It appears to have some strange security bolts attaching it.?

many thanks
?


 

If you live in the US you can get a complete security fastener tool kit at Harbor Freight for around $10.? It should have what you're looking for.? I've yet to run into a security fastener that couldn't be undone with the kit.

Thanks buddy, I’ve drilled them out and used stud extractors to remove now. The bolts are made from incredibly soft material?


 

Huh...no help

Sorry for the confusion. I looked at mine, and? couldn't think of a solution...that's all.

Hi Keith,?
?
I didn’t buy a new one, I’m simply relocating mine to below the tank to give space to run the cables neater?
