Usually those are a small self-tapping screw. On my 1300 it is about 12mm long as it only has to pass through the collar on the sensor and then...
I had a local auto repair place fix the radiator on my RF900; looked ugly but kept the green stuff inside.
Yes that is the way I view the front calipers as well. You could potentially do the same drill-out on the front calipers as you plan on the back,...
I like it but I bet Greta Thunberg is not happy!
