I found some videos to help with disassembling gauges, but not one specifically for my bike. I know different bike have different methods of removing the trip reset knob. I don't see any set screws and turning backward isn't working. Whats the secret?
 
Really on tight. You have to open it up, hold the shaft inside with a pair of needle nose, and turn (clockwise, I think). I believe they helped with some glue.

Unfortunately, Pistol Pete doesn’t do gauges anymore.
