Removing steering post top, on snopro

[indy500]

Wondering how to remove the top off of the adjustable steering post. Mine keeps slipping and falls to the lowest position. I have the adjustable collar off and all the ball bearings out, and of course dropped one in the front some place. Anyways how do i remove the complete top to get at the top notches to clean them out and inspect them.

You should have taken the handlebar clamp off and while you have the bars all the way down, there is a circlip on the post that needs to come off. Then you can take the adjustable portion and move it up as if you are going to put it in the highest position, and it should come right off.

X2, mine was all corroded and nasty, cleaned it up and greased it, golden now

Thanks for the help, were you having your bars skip down to the bottom position when you had it raised before you got them all cleaned up?
