Are you serious?

Best advice is to spring the $60 for the service manual.

If you have to ask this question you're not capable of doing the job.

Take it apart documenting each piece you take off, then just reverse the order to put it all back together. What could go wrong????

Ditto and buy the book. If you lack the confidence don't do it. If you don't have $500.00 - $1,000.00 in tools don't do it. If you never did the rear brakes on you car don't do it.

How will you get any life lessons if you "don't do it"?
Just do it! No wait, that running shoes. Aw what the hell it's your bike. If you want to take it apart and see how it works go ahead.

I can break the bike down my issue is with the wiring. Having all the wires ran the correct way.
