Thanks for the replies.
I was sort of hoping someone had found a miracle solution to stripping the stuff.
Oh well, it looks like my wallet will be taking another hit.
I'm not keen on those late type carbs either,  I'll hopefully be moving them on at some point.
I've found the early ones a cinch to work on.

Johnny4428:
That’s a lovely transformation on that engine Roo! Interested to see how you get on with yours Grewth.

Grewth:
I'm honestly thinking that I might just have the F2 head bead blasted back to bare alloy.
Worth in to keep those big valves
With the barrels and the crankcases, it's probably going to be cheaper to swap in F1 or K model items, especially if I'm going to re-shell the crank anyway.

SumpMagnet:
I have an F2, and I just rubbed back the bad bits and re-painted in satin black VHT paint.

As far as removing paint goes, I used to have an XS1100 1.1S with a black finished engine. I was able to remove that by...er...washing the bike. Honda finished their engine cases a little better.
