LSL bar conversion removal, Pointy.

So made the decision to go back to the good ol' clipons on my K6.

Got the bar off, only to find that I can't get the socket over the steering stem nut as the base for the bar is risen slightly on the lover half, meaning I cannot get a good hold on the nut (see pics)

Before you ask I didn't put it on, was the previous owner!

Any Ideas folks?

Grind out the backside or grind down the outter perimeter of a socket

Get a punch or chisel & hit the corner of the nut until it loosens

Looks more like the sockets slipped on the nut

Another bodge option is to get a stilson wrench on the round top of the nut.

I use a headset spanner meant for cycles. Your local push bike shop will stock them.
