Shy Mesh Strainer

  1. Hi All, I am trying to clean the mesh strainer on my 19K miles 2002 Monster 900ie. It's one of the later models with separate cap and strainer

    I have a 14mm hex driver which fits the strainer fine, but the strainer is in very very tight, wont come out and I don't want to break anything !! I expected it to be little more than hand tight TBH. I'm not trying to take the wrong part out am I ??

    I don't expect there to be any debris; I guess that this system harks back to the crude filtration of the Bevel Days, not really necessary with modern cartridge filters ??
