I can now confirm that the method in the first video works very well on my 07 FS550

Sidenote on the <09 bikes...

You know how the right exhaust valve decompressor has a bit of valve cover in the way that hinders getting a wrench on the nut?

I made a tool out of a 12 point 3/8" drive socket, and a cheapo 10 mm offset wrench.
