There is lots of valuable info in the FAQ section of the ST site.

 From the FAQs....

Removal - Socket required is 46mm (or if unavailable a 1 13/16" may be 
substituted)

Triumph offers the socket on a 1/2" drive for $29.95US. I just went to 
Sears and bought a 1 13/16" (3/4 drive) and a 3/4 to 1/2 adaptor. Cost for 
this was $24US
