One thing to note is that if running at 70 plus you MUST turn on both fuel taps AND keep the tank topped up.
The taps dont flow enough to feed the carb at the other end ptoperly so that piston runs week and holes, they do use oil and replacing a gearbox sprocket is a days job with a couple of "special" tools.
Yes i used to work on them and the 'orrible white cardinals!

Tricky, the abs light is frequently a wheel sensor covered in crap or failing, trouble is you may need an expensive scanner to tell you which one!

Difficult to twin disc a 400 as no mountings on second slider, i believe there were some castings made years ago for it.

No need to dismantle, personally i wouldnt locktite, you may need to take it out sometime!. The hole is a blind hole so nothing should leak

Old school mate, all you need now is the stud out and a new one, mole grips or stillsons to remove as thread is too knackered for double nut

If it doesnt work you will need to split the nut to get it off

Remove the other nut, put a screwdriver in the slot by the stripped one, lever the cap off whilst turning the nut, it should pick up the thread and undo

Not durability just different shape, you MAY be able to adapt a later tank
