I dripped some Liquid Wrench penetrating oil in between the caliper and pistons before using compressed air (with conical rubber tip on my air hose) into the brake fluid line port to blow them out of the caliper. I also used a thin plank of wood held somewhat in the brake pad zone of the caliper to blow the pistons into.
Another rebuild kit option is a K&L Supply kit #32-1153 if your pistons are not scored, pitted, or otherwise damaged and are reusable.
It's sold by many vendors including this one:
This kit contains all necessary OEM replacement parts to rebuild ONE Brake Caliper Assembly. Note: Some front brake calipers require 2 kits. Order as required. Only 1 kit required for rear caliper. Brake Caliper Piston and Brake Caliper Pad Spring not

Notice it does not include a new bleeder valve screw like the BrakeCrafters kit includes if you discover that the closing point of your bleeder screw is pitted and requires replacement.
Those bleeder screws (43352-568-003) are also available genuine Honda from your local Honda Powersports dealer...
Regarding the switches (or, "controls") on the handlebars : some here have dismantled, cleaned, re-lubed, and reassembled them successfully.
I dismantled and serviced my left side control on one of my bikes when I discovered the headlight switch needing what seemed like too much force to switch around, and I'll be doing the same to the right side control of my other bike because the starter push-button needs an internal cleaning and re-lube.
