Anyone had to have this done recently that might be able to offer a guide towards the pricing? It's certainly not something I was hoping to have to pay for, after getting a ton of other stuff done last month, only to have to get the engine opened up again for this job.
Any info much appreciated!

What makes you think it was the camchain?
Camchains are £40-60 on wemoto ( http://www.wemoto.com/bikes/yamaha/fzs_6...n_tourmax/ )
Replacing the cam chain is a very involved job if you intend to do it yourself. As for paying a garage to do it... well you better order some lube with those price quotes, it's not a quick job due to the cam chain being in the middle of the engine rather than side-routed.
