Started the disassembly last night - Deep Clean and Detail

[Lance Mark]

I spent some time last night taking the bike apart.

I still need to remove the tank, front fender, front lower fairings, air intake, and the gap filler on the rear. There is a piece on each side of the rear fender that i'd like to take off to further expose the rear fender, but I'd have to remove the exhaust and I'd prefer not to do that. I don't plan on removing the rear fender or the wheels either.

Once it's done, I'll go after the carcass of the bike and make it as clean as I can. No need for a hose. I'll do it all with spray bottles and MF towels. Then each removed piece will be cleaned, corrected, and reattached.

I'm excited to finally start this project. I really appreciate all the help and advice folks here have generously offered. After I clean, but before I correct, I'll take detailed pics so I can share some before and after pics.

Wish me luck guys.
