That's not the full name of your bike. For instance, mine is XL1200R. I recommend you put yours into your footnote.

You could use a small chisel to notch a slot for a flat head screw driver.

Used them before , the Allen bolt is just below the surface of the fork so the "cap" will set flush. Mine looked just like your picture.
