that sucks man, if the bike just locked up that means your engine went from high rpm to zero in just a second, probably not good on your wallet:(

Dont use brake cleaner. Brake cleaner removes the lubrication.

You need to use some penetrating oil.

Sounds like perhaps the rings weren't gapped properly?
