In the book it states about 11-15 hours to do and it does seem a bit of a coont to do by the sounds of it.

To get someone to do it oyu are looking at £600.00 or if you are not to far from Essex you could alwys speak to Pulsarboby.

When mine had its little valve bending incident i think the head was off in about 2 hours and it probably took around 5-6 hours in total :lol:
