Hi

my bike has an engine issue (again) :-\.
I want to open up my engine & see what's going on. The service manual metions a few special tools are required when removing the cylander head.
My question is, are any special tools really needed, or can someone with some common sense get by without them?

My plan so far is 'go for it & hope for the best'.
