The other way is to find something like a piece of close fitting bar, fill the up with grease, put the bar in & belt it with a hammer. It will hydraulic the bush straight out. I’ve used it several times to remove spigot bearings out of A series cranks.A bit late now but I’ve had success at times removing oil lite In a blind hole it’s possible to just keep turning the tap so it bottoms out and pulls the bush out, VW starter motor nose bush as an example

What does that work out to a tank?
my fireblade was the worst at 40miles to a tank on a closed road officer
Not heard that one before, at a guess the fit wouldn’t need to be so good, less of the “splat factor”Wet tissue works as well. However no good in this instance as it wasn’t a blind hole.

I’m beginning to think this bike doesn’t like me....
All built up, back in the frame yesterday. After tea I thought I’d go for a little bimble. 200dys down the road and it feels like the back end is on ball bearings.
Only a flat tyre, in the rear. Luckily it comes out very easily. Unlike the the tyre wanting to come off the rim. Not surprising its possibly been on the rim since 1961

Clutch push rod O-ring seal - I have had good results with X rings before in the same sort of situation.
Tank Reserve, is the brass tube coming out the top for the main feed? I used to extend mine with nylon airline to give a reserve I could work with.
