Bit of an update here.

While it was trying to create a flood of Noah's Ark intensity this weekend, I did this to my 998.

The job is a little more tricky than the 996.

LHS.
The fast idle lever assembly holds the bar clamp together, to remove this you first need to remove the left hand side switch gear with a little stubby screw driver from underneath to allow you access to the two screws holding the clamp together.
Once done the two bolts holding the bar in the clip on clamp can be removed and the bar extracted, you can not remove the bar completely due to the pin holding the assembly on the bar but this exposes the pin to allow removal.
I found that the best tool for this is a pair of sharp pincers. They allow you to grip the pin and work it out a bit at a time until it is out.
Refit as you removed the bar and accesories and set at the required angles.

RHS.
Remove the bolts on the bar clamp and wedge the front brake lever and master cylinder safely with a cloth etc.
To allow the removal of the pin, remove switchgear by undoing the two screws holding it together.

Hope this helps someone.
