RE: how does the key **** come off
There were some pretty good posts on how to do that from my readings last year. \\; I won't give you the 'get the manual' line as you're hopefully well aware of that.
 \\;
Try some searches on the forums for it, I'll do the same and report back if I find it.

and an exerpt from another post\\;
7. Remove the fairing cap and the ignition switch.
 \\; a. Turn the forks all the way to the left.
 \\; b. Look under the fairing cap (that's the plastic piece under the ignition switch that has places for 4 switches) and unplug the wiring harness.
 \\; c. Insert the key. Turn the ignition to unlock. Turn the ignition to fork lock.
 \\; d. Depress the release button on the bottom left of the ignition, push the key down and turn the key 60 degrees counter-clockwise.
 \\; e. Lift and remove the ignition ****. A spring will fall out of the ****.
 \\; f. Remove the nut (7/8") and spacer. You may have to turn the forks to the right to get at it.
 \\; g. Remove 2 screws (torx) from the fairing cap. 1 on each side.
 \\; h. Remove the fairing cap.
