    Hey guys - i'm struck

    This is nothing like wheel removal on my older bike.

    To remove the tyre i need to get the front axle cover off (it's on a 2008 CVO FXDSE2) and manual says that i need to use a #6-32 screw to get the cover off.  I have no idea what this #6-32 screw is; and unless i get the cover off i can't get to the axle

    Anyone got any ideas?  Is this a special tool?

    Cheers,

    hi mate I used a screw from a wall mounted power socket the old type have the same thread, screw it in and pull out the cover. loosen the grub screw in the end of the fork ( right side only ) then un screw the axle, support the wheel while removing the axle, hope this helps.
