I've never tried this myself, but remember reading some posts on it. You heat a candle and let the hot drippings pour down into the stuck parts. let it cool and pull apart. Or something like that. Maybe someone else knows this technique, or something else.
Coca Cola might work too.

Well, I cheated. The tube was pretty thick, so I cut a thin slot down the bottom of the outer tube with a dremel and then managed to get them apart. IF it looks too weak for my uses, I will either rivet it or when I get the use of a welder I will weld it back. Seems pretty sturdy though. Next is to fabricate a sissy bar for it.
If the tube winds up being too flimsy for comfort, a couple of us have putzed around with custom arrangements for mounting boxes - might find some use looking at an old thread with pics and ideas here...
