    Bought some engine degreaser from Supercheap Auto and just got to work basicly.. bagged off a few things first.. alternator, battery caps (n took battery out), dizzy cap n maybe another thing or 2 ive forgotten to mention but the great users here have previously said them!

    Just sprayed the crap out of the engine bay for 3 mins including scrubbing wit an old tooth brush that i should prolly through out to make sure no1 uses it :lol: let it sit for 6-10 n then rinse thoroughly off wit high pressure.. did this 3 times n here r the before and after shots... crappy light coz of crappy weather weve been having in Melbourne recently but i'm FAIRLY happy wit how it turned out!

    there's a screw under the handle

    2 screws in the grip

    2 screws on the very bottom

    and one screw behind the light (i think)

    then you just pop out and lift up!
