I tried using that tool and I twisted the crap out of it. Yes, I did loosen
the crimp allen bolts on the front of the fork. Maybe the thing was over
torqued, but that tool is now junk.

Good call on the rear socket, but for the front, there is a part in the
Triumph tool kit that you can use. It looks like a spark plug wrench, but
it fits the front axle, and then using a 14mm wrench on the other end, you
can loosen it. Just FYI.
