Thanks for all your comments, much appreciated. I thought they were ok, but I had a slight nagging doubt. I'll replace #2 tho while I can.   

Oddjob:
Can't remember what was recommended for removing old gaskets but might have been Acetone. I'm sure that will remind someone of what it actually was if I'm wrong. Sort of melts the gasket or maybe the bonding agent Honda used.

I’ve just got some cellulose thinners to try. If that doesn’t work I’ll have a go with acetone.

Might have been thinners TBH.

I do remember it as being something that dissolved stuff, like thinners does with paint and acetone with expanding foam

Orcade-Ian:
When I did the head gaskets on my GL1200 Aspencade, I tried all kinds of stuff to remove the old gaskets - thinners,  acetone,  tar and glue remover and ended up with Hermetite gasket remover.  This worked very well but it still took a long time soaking and removing.  I have had Loctite gasket remover recommended to me recently but not bought any yet.
