Are you ever lucky, I am in the midst of pulling mine off (both)
drain oil drain rad if you have running boards (remove) remove false tank and seat and side covers. and inner covers remove neg lead from battery (safety) remove rad (take off hose from overflow tank and rad cap and loosen and remove hoses.) (unplug fan) take off lower engine mount nuts and remove engine guards (right side not bad but I find I need to lower the exhaust headers to remove left side. pray (and loosen exhaust nuts) hopefully if they are tight they will just remove the stud where you can then loosen the nuts at the bench. remove rear exhaust bolts and drop exhaust. take out spark plugs remove front timing belt covers Loosen driven pulley nuts ( made a jig but you may be able to loosen them without (hold crankshaft if it turns) they are not too tight. If your belts are not being replaced ( I just did mine a few months ago ) mark them right and left and rotation direction. after 84 remove pulse generators loosen tensioner pulleys and remove belts pull off driven pulleys (can be snug but will come off with patience) and a little wd40 squirted in the keyway. take off covers behind pulleys take of cam shaft cover at back of cylinder head Remove cylinder head covers Remove bolts holding intake (8) use bungee and tie up carbs remove 7 bolts holding cylinder head (there is a sneaky one underneath not mentioned in the Honda Manual I just used a rubber mallet and the head loosened off easily. There is a tiny oil orifice at the top of the head dont loose it dont try to undo the bolts holding the water intake the head will come off along with the water pipe. If you need some pictures let me know. I think I covered everything if not post back I am not touching my valves so am not covering that part, just replacing head gaskets and other stuff You will need to replace several O rings etc including the oil orifice (2 per side) Part numbers can be found on the net
The only stupid questions are the one's that are not asked.
