Can't tell you...it's a SECRET club!

However, you may wish to try tapping it with a dead-blow type hammer just for fun.

I removed my coils and moved up some of the wiring to get it out. Kind of rolled out towards the front and out

even with all the stuff removed it's still kind of a wiggle off.

make sure everything is out of the way, give it a few LIGHT taps to the side with a dead blow hammer or a rubber mallet and it should come right off.

I don't think I've ever taken it off with the tank on... jeez, is that even possible. But I do know that my drill is to take it out the left side and even then the gasket drags on the cam gear. Gotta push... what is dem da throttle cables.. outta the way.

Ah, Grasshopper, once it is removed you will receive the secret handshake and understand the meaning of the universe.
