Default 1st GEN GS300 rotors

i'm trying to take the rotors off of my 1st gen GS3, the chilton manual says to remove the mounting bolts and the rotor will come off, problem is i can't see anything that looks remotely like a bolt on the front of this rotor. any ideas? thanks.

rotors are NOT bolt on !!

as on the pic, just tap from behind on them, they will come off.

that's it.

Did you get them off? I assume you are beating them by now instead of just tapping.

LOL, i temporarily abandoned the project. i don't want to hit too because it may cause damage to the hub. i was going to see if i couldn't get something stronger than WD40 and try spraying the key areas.
