Good ol Petroleum Jelly works pretty good. Let soak, repeat as needed.
That plastic doesn't "like" paint. It is very porous and just keeps absorbing it. Some Krylon Fusion might do a better job, but it's always...
Twist the knife...
Yeah, right choice. I wouldn't have gave him shit though due to the misrepresentation. I had a similar situation recently on a VFR (but not as...

Cool. I would KILL for that tank.
Bastard. Gonna get nicer down here in WA, but it's gonna be cold (relatively). Mid 40s. Friday afternoon looks nice, but is pretty much dark by...
Very similar approach to Pete. For me on coolant hoses, I generally inspect for issues and replace as needed, during maintenance and on...

Nice. My riding days are limited now. Gonna drop into the lower 40's (F) after these couple storms move thru. :( I can always bundle up, I do...
Those o-rings are likely re-usable. I would save my money. Before removing the forks from the bike, remove the circlip under the dust seal and...
ATF would be fine (Approx 7.5) if you already bought it. NO AIR! The proper oil height will take care of that (by reducing the air space). In...
Yeah, that came out nice. Good job. If I was in the same boat, I would still disable and use their recommended oil height with a 10wt oil....
With the correct components, it is not needed. And just not good. A valve that restricts the flow of fluid to try and keep the forks from diving...
I think you'll be fine with a one piece. Strongly consider disabling TRAC with the correct springs and fork oil height/weight though.
IN A PINCH, remove as much as possible on the clutch side exposing the crank and clutch gears. Tie a shop rag in a knot and let it bind the gears...
Naked for now. Would love to put some NC30 items on, but not now ($$$). I'm already spending money I don't have on this bike. But the front end...
