Lining Up Triple clamps on F4i
So somehow my top triple clamp is a tweeked from the bottom one and I'm trying to get them alined. I've loosened up the center nut, the side pinch nuts to the forks and both clip-on nuts. I'm turning the bars all the way to the left and then tapping it with a dead blow hammer on the back of the right side. I've done this before on my SV but on the F4i, it's not budging. Does anyone know if theres something else I need to loosen?

use a large flat head screwdriver as a prybar on one of the flat sides of the 22mm hex nut on the top of the tube, pry this against the inside of the tripple to line it up and pull it through with the other hand.

Ok I got it. I had to take the forks out and put them back in but I got it all lined up. My forks aren't bent either I check them. Thanks for the help
