Hello, Riders.
I've been doing a whole slew of upgrades (mostly cosmetic) to my bike recently, and I've run into some difficulties with figuring out how to access / remove / install some of the parts.

Thank you all in advance for all the insight and advice you might choose to toss my way.
I've been doing a whole slew of upgrades (mostly cosmetic) to my bike recently, and I've run into some difficulties with figuring out how to access / remove / install some of the parts.
Here's the list of things I did so far:
- Corbin saddle
- Dry / Maintenance Free Battery
- Replaced damaged turn signal
- Installed turn signal grilles & visors
- Replaced damaged air filter cover
- Installed brake light grille
Now, here are some of problems I've run into:
- Removing Tach & speedo covers
- Those plastic chrome covers on the tach & speedo are scratched, and I'm planning on painting them. However, even after some bold forrays with phillips screwdrivers and hex keys, including disassembly of headlight and the 'control panel', I can't figure how to remove the covers - namely, Tach cover and that wire cluster entering it... help? - Replacing Brake levers
- I haven't actually worked on this yet, but my initial browse of Clymer didn't come up with a procedure for removing old levers and installing new ones... and since the brakes and clutch etc are some of those things that better damn work well... any advice on how to do that? - Replacing handle grips
- Same as with brake levers, I haven't started working on this yet, but seeing how whole throttle thing is a dangerous one to mess with, I'd welcome advice and guidance before I tackle this.
