evening my stuttering stablemates........this you wont believe.............IVE MADE MORE PROGRESS ON THE FAZER :eek .......cams out tonight along with followers and shims......un-bolted the head and lifted off.........head came off real easy (too easy me thinks) as did the gasket :rolleyes ...no sign of a blown gasket and the valves look as if they are seating well 
i turned the head upsidedown fitted some old plugs and filled the combustion chambers with petrol then went inside for a cuppa....went back and checked 10mins later and cyl 1,2,3 had lost 25% no4 not lost any.
so iam thinking headgasket, as came off far to easy and the black coating (not sure what it is) on the gasket is comming away also valves need grinding in
.......not sure if this will solve the stutter though :\
i have a couple of valve compression tools that ive used on car cylinder heads in the past but not sure if they will fit the fazer any foccers remover thier valves before ? [size=78%] [/size]
