400/4 restoration - it begins at last

I'm a couple steps behind you! Saw this on eBay (https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Honda-Clutch-Holding-Tool-Centre-Nut-Tool-Set-CB400F-400-Four-400-4-HWT051-/251421804669) and wondered whether or not it's really necessary. The vids I've seen on YouTube seem to suggest you don't need a special tool, just a castellated socket.

Thoughts please, experts?! :D

Nurse Julie:
Castelated socket should work just fine 👍

Bryanj:
The special tool is a castellated socket!

Yes I have a proper Honda one somewhere and will order one if it does not turn up before rebuild. Just impatient and want to do more on the weekend. Its so exciting!!! ::)

Rozabikes Tim:
Well frame all stripped and everything boxed up for later assesment.

Motor all apart besides 5 head studs. I have done the 2 nut / heat trick on all but these last ones are reluctant. They are quite thin shanked and I do not want to apply too much force and break them..... Think I will try  stud in vice and turn the whole case - (Laverda120's tip I think?) Will apply heat again but worry I may go overboard with too much! Any guidance appreciated.

Edit Ocadians vice tip - ta Julie :D
