Honda-SOHC

Thanks to all the tips on decarbing the valves they are all now cleaned up and shortly i will get to grinding them in on the sparkly clean head. I decided to do some work on the forks next. I read the manual (Haynes) and watched a couple of YouTube tutorials and all seemed fairly straightforward. I followed the steps draining the oil, pre-loosening the bottom Allen screw, removing the top 22mm fap and the spring but, I cannot now get the Allen screw out of the bottom of the fork leg to relase leg form top tube. The bolt just spins around; I assume it screws into the bottom of the damper tube which is rotating with the screw. I have tried pulling on the chrome fork tube, pushing on it to create some tension but no joy. Have I approached this incorrectly or is there a knack to this that I havent discovered? Any advice would be very welcome. Mike

I had some new tools from Wendy for my recent birthday - undecided between Metric & Imperial so she went for the safe option.
