Interesting. So this means that you'll need to be able to ship the bike from wherever it gets drained of it's fluids, which for me would end up being a real pain. Hopefully you have a trailer or something.
Anyway, as you know - it's just the gas, oil, and hydraulic fluids. If they'd let you slide on just the gas & oil, you'd save a lot of work....any chance of that???
If not, it's not a bad process. There's drain fittings on all the brake calipers, coupled with opening up the master cylinders under the seat and on the handlebar. For the clutch, I'm sure there's a drain fitting or banjo bolt at the line termination (you'll have to follow it from the lever to see where it goes)...I'm not too sure.
Good luck!
