    I know a good tool company who had one. Its a hefty beast.

    Just need a 7mm one so I can get the actual tensioners off now....

    Indeed, it was, stupid me!

    Rear tensioner changed and valves checked. There was about 3mm of play in the rear tensioner. Cant wait to get the front one out and see how much it doesn't move!

    Rear valves are quite marginal. i will post back the results when I have done the front cylinder.
