Happy to help. I've only done it once before, but went VERY slowly, the main aim being to learn all the angles and pitfalls for future reference (cos I'm NEVER going to sell this bike), so I reckon I've got a pretty good handle on it now. Remind me via pm when you're ready and we can take it from there.
By the way, you mention taking the heads off.....No need for that. Just raise the tank, release the oil cooler fixings (leaving the pipes connected) and remove the rocker covers.
I'm assuming that you have a rear paddock stand so the engine can be turned over via the rear wheel...?
