Replacing a camshaft sprocket?

[jdub6092]

Cant find any information on this after lots of surfing.
I bought a spare head a while ago and the cams and journals are in great shape, but the sprockets are for the gs650g and 650gl, so of no use for a 650e.
The sprocket bolts are torqued to the max with at least semi permanent loctite.
Wondering how to get enough leverage on these two bolts to remove the sprockets.
Anyone been down this road?

Small blowtorch or electric heat gun and heat the bolts and where they screw into, will soften up the loctite.

Be careful with the torque when retightening, I had assumed that all the cam sprocket bolt torques would be the same across all the GS(X) models and their workshop manuals. I was wrong. Getting cast iron welded is expensive.

Just say'in if your sprockets have been slotted or if slotted sprockets have been installed, those bolts, in my opinion, will need to be tighter than on OEM sprockets.
