like many yamahas, it probably needs you to use 'special damper tool' to undo the bolt that holds the caboodle together. I haven't done it for years, but you can hold it to undo the allen key underneath the fork using a piece of dowel (9mm or 12mm maybe) instead. It needs to be long enought hat you can tap it into place with a hammer.

google around for a workshop manual, they are out there on the cyberweb

ive taken the bolt out of the bottom if that is what you mean and still when i do the pull hammer affect they still dont come apart
