So a few months ago I picked up the Motorcycle Classics magazine where they happened to be rebuilding carbs on a 1973 CB500 and found the article amazingly helpful. Needless to say, I ended up reading up on all the installments of their CB500 rebuild and decided to compile it into a pdf article for myself and anyone else needing details and pictures on topics they had covered, and also to preserve the amazing guide that Landon Hall at Motorcycle Classics had built from disappearing from the digital world forever in the event that their webmaster decides to pull it. So after a few hours of formatting, here it is: The pdf contains the articles:
Part 1: Intro
Part 2: Rebuilding forks
Part 3: Rebuildg carbs
Part 4: Rebuilding head bearings and swing arm
Part 5: Rebuilding the caliper and master cylinder
Being 2.7MB, I couldn't figure out how to upload it to the forum, so it can be found here:

Enjoy! Maybe it can one day be filed into the FAQs or manuals section?
