Just be aware- even 'just' removing the cam cover- and taking the time to *correctly* measure all 16 valves- then reassemble is still a few hours work.

And depending on how many miles on your bike- I'm not a fan of reusing old rubber gaskets exposed to heat / expansion / contraction cycles. I'd replace the gasket.
