    ZR6 Riser Gasket Replacement

    On my ZR6 i cannot get a wrench around the nut because there is no room. What is the easiest way to get the riser off so I can change my gaskets? I have two gaskets ready to go from White Lake and I cannot seem to figure out how to remove the nuts. I definitely do not want to break them off, so I thought I had better ask before proceeding.
    Thanks You.

    If you don't have a "Crows Foot" attachment in your kit, take a Open End/Ring Spanner & bend it 90 degrees at the bottom of the handle at the ring end and you can get onto the nuts easily. You may have to grind the back side of the ring slightly so it fits better between the nut & recess in the riser. From memory the nut size is 9/16".
