Yes it's the latch in the middle on the basket, they tend to get stuck.
You are thinking suspension. Tony Pham is asking how to take the stem off. Loosening the pinch bolts won't do anything but allow the stem to rotate on the steer tube. He has to remove the top cap to take the stem off. If he removes the top cap and the stem, he'll have to reset the preload on the bearings when he reassembles it.
