If you are that much into it, you are more than 75% done! Just remove those 2 mounting bolts and the caliper would come off. Just make sure you don't put too much stress on the brake hose. When you reinstall back, use a flat screwdriver tip to pry open the pads if they became too tight for the rotor to slip in. After that, it's good time to bleed air from the brake line if the brake lever (of course the front!) feels spongy. I would replace the brake fluid at this time if it's more than 3 years old.

Kawi says either DOT 3 or 4 is fine for the "FRONT".
