Take it easy the first time, remove the plastics and you can tilt up the tank rather than removing it. I suggest cleaning the bike before so no dirt drops into the open covers. Also before removing the spark plug make sure to use compressed air or something to make sure no small rocks are in that whole the plug goes in....they could fall into the cylinder when you pull the plug. Make sure to follow the tutorial on aligning the timing marks. Don't overtighten the valve covers when you put them back on. Use locktite when you put the plastics back on. Use anti-sieze on the port hole covers and don't overtighten them. Undoing the two bolts on the right side radiator will allow you to push them forward to make room to get your hands in for the exhaust valves. Random thoughts done!!!
