    Triple tree stand??

    I would personally just use a scissor style jack. I've seen too many disasters with triple tree stands. Not to mention in my opinion they are pointless because they get in the way of wany front end work you may be doing.

    chain side plate

    leem is right. Most master links have to be "pressed" on with a chain tool. Most chain breaker kits have the adapter plate to press on the master link plates

    Electrical issue

    after you ride it you need to check the voltage on your battery to see if its charging. If its not charging its either your regulaor/rec or your stator. Or leave you bike running and check voltage at the batter. it should read around 13.5

    Micro fiber cloth and water. My visor is tinted blue and regular paper towels scratch it. I just use soapy water then rinse with water and wipe dry.

    Three-finger vs. four-finger clutch pull, N to 1st clunk/jerk = problem or normal?

    if you r bike doesnt "creep" while you have the clutch pulled in and you are stopped i wouldnt worry about it. The clutch will always slightly drag enough to make the rear tire spin while its on a stand.

    Change your brake fluid

    it easier to suck out all the old fluid from the resivor (leaving the lines full of fluid) then pour new fluid in, crack the bleeder valves and pump brake until fresh fluid is seen. Just dont forget to top off your resivor and dont let it get too low and get air bubble in your lines.
