Come on YC you're not thinking outside the box, just turn the bike upside down.

Don't forget to drain the engine oil first though otherwise it'll fill the airbox and be a bi*ch to start again. Best remove the tank too, the fuel cap isn't always totally petrol tight and may weep.

Seriously you would be amazed at how much crap came out of the forks on mine, looked like someone had stuck a pound of coal in each leg. Don't think that grinding paste be too good for your seals and bushings
