Default Spoiler?

Anyone here with a 04/05 know how to get the spoiler off of your bike. It may be easy, but for some reason using the alen wrench i have, i feel like im just getting closer and closer to stripping the bolt. Any sugguestions?

Yea just get a good set of T handle alen wrenches. so that way you can get some good leverage. Should just beable to take those bolts out and your good to go.

I think there's some loktite on them so you'll have to crank on them. Otherwise, there's no secret to it other than PULLLLLL.

Haha, that does look like a spoiler. And what I thought was just a handle that could help you maneuver the bike around the garage is actually a device used to increase rear wheel stability under high speeds. I heard they only work over 100 mph anyway, so remove that thing, it looks "rice."
