right then take the plug out put to tdc inlet and exhaust cam lobes at about 11 oclock and one oclock the mark on the fly wheel should be inline with the top bolt hole from the stator cover.then look at the cam chain you will see one of the links has been nulled over it should be around the one oclock mark block off any access for bits to drop down inside the engine and remove the clutch cover after removeing the cover lookfor timeing marks or make your own.now remove the cam chain tentioner and then the pins from the link slip the chain through the head and remove the head job done mate.refitt in reverse use the semi hardening gaskett seal on the head gaskett and the silicone type for the rocker cover and caseing.the stator just send it to sparks state what year and modle it came off and he will work his magic on it he is the dogs b------s at this work they are better than standard when returned.
Run the chain 1 full revolution first to make sure you dont have amaster/joiner link .Put some rag down the cam chain tunnel, make sure you have no fuel leaks/laying around I use a 4" angle grinder. Grind the two pins back level to the side plate, the link will then pry apart. You will need to buy either a new chain if the existing one is worn- check how far the adjuster is out ,or another link to re join the chain.
Oh, remove the adjuster before you break the chain.
