SXR Removing Cylinder on SXR

[Moto44]

I was trying to remove my cylinder from my SXR 800 tonight to install my girdle head. Everything came apart no problem but when it came time to remove the cylinder I can not get it to budge. There is a tab on the left side of the cylinder where I tried to wedge a screwdriver in there to get it to lift off but no luck. Any tricks to getting a stuck cylinder off? And yes all the cylinder nuts are removed.

Thanks

Rubber mallet......give it a few whacks with an upward angle!!

Yeah I tried that. Going to put some wd-40 on the studs before I try again.

Make sure all the washers are off too, sometimes they get stuck. Bang it around with a rubber mallet and it should pop loose.
