Topic: Very very stupid question, original headlight bracket

[hotrodv]

Hi all, I know this will be a very dumb question but I'm at my first experience with a bike and starting disassembly my cb500 I stop at this point..
I'm planning to change the original headlight bracket with a new one so I've to remove the original, did I need to take the fork out for do that?cause I've take out the bridge fork top but seem like it's hold on the lower part of the stem steering..it will be nice ifit will came out without removing everything.. any tips?

Look at the lower tree at the ear - you'll probably see it goes through a notch in the ear.   

Resist the urge to ham hand it (by cuting the ears) and pull the fork tubes - you ears look to be in fair shape and are worth a couple of bucks to someone.

ahah you read my mind... I want to save all the original parts, but when I was looking at it my mind say me, cut it cut it!!! 

I'll take the fork out.. probably this bike will never rev again!!
