If you're talking about the fork tubes, I usually just use some brake cleaner to clean the inside of the tubes, blow some air in them to dry it out.

I'm not sure if this will work on an 07. You will need a vac sync to adjust the primary throttle plates. I can't remember which year they started to have to use Idle speed control lock out to do the sync correctly, this is something you have to use a computer to make it happen.
