Thanks for the tips Gents.
Did the following
Bike on the Paddock Stand
Used Muc Off as I had no brake cleaner, but scrubbed it in using a firm bristled nail brush. Used loads of water to rinse and watched to see if it was expelled from certain parts before others. It wasnt. Also noticed the solution go multicoloured in areas as I scrubbed which I took to be the WD40 coming out. Could not see any stains on the tyre so went off to Sainsburys car park for a testing session. (Was 730am)
All was ok so I hit the road, a little gingerly still.
Met a few old friends by acident at Box Hill, all on R6's, and spent the morning chasing them, so I can confidently say it worked.
However, to anyone reading this and doing the same, be careful, what you do to your bike is your risk, but this worked for me.
thanks again
