Bought myself a bench grinder and put some 3M cleaning pads on it and it works beautifully! The first thing I cleaned were the headlight reflectors and it took seconds. Went on to clean all of the bolts, nuts and washers that i've removed so far.
Then I removed the front wheel and using the tool directions I found on the site, made the bearing retainer remover and easily removed the retainer, I still have to remove the bearings. Then removed the forks, disassembled and cleaned all of the parts.
Removed the handlebars, speedo/tach, Pilot lamp. Then started organizing the wire harness, I wasn't really sure how to approach the removal of the handlebar components wires so I simply used masking tape and numbered both sides of each wire before disconnecting?
The only issues i had were when removing the bleeder valve from the brake caliper I snapped it off, I tried to drill it out but stopped myself halfway as I was worried I would damage the threads?
Also I dropped the removed brake master cylinder and I guess I jammed the bolt slightly but not realizing it when I went to remove the bracket bolts I cross threaded one of them and now it's totally jammed, any ideas how to remove it now?
Thanks!
