No, not the cylinder head, just the header ie. The exhaust pipe from the rear [Vertical] cylinder. It passes through a gap in the swing arm.

You start at the 'outside' and work inwards...
seat then tank
all the wiring connectors
airbox (and all the sundry bits like battery ignitor boxes)
Carbs
Exhausts (from the motor outwards and all the hangers)
Up to there its all standing up by itself.
All the wiring connectors going to the motor

.....

Get the motor supported
Bolts holding frame to motor and swinging arm to frame

Take the frame (with forks attached or remove them first plus all the wiring to bars and lights) off
Take the swinging arm off

You now have a pile of bits that will probably go back together to make a monster

Thanks nickj
I might try and construct some kind of trolley/table with a frame for the engine to sit in to start with
