Thumbs down read this BEFORE throwing you tuppence in!!!

theres a fair amount of bullshiting on workshop threads recently, it doesnt help lads it confuses them and completely goes against the grain of what this sections for , ie HELPING with probs.
if you are not sure what your talking about dont confuse threads where others do know what they are talking about.

theres more bad advice than good in here lately and it'll ruin a good section

Yes, I agree - if you don't know what you are talking about then going on about then stay the hell out. And stuff, always and anyways.

Not many people know about putting a half cup of water in with the engine oil to protect their head gaskets when they service their bikes- THIS IS VERY HELPFUL and can prevent gasket warpage and mould. I got this off an email from my bank BTW.

Why not tackle this head and when you see someone bullshitting point it out?

That would guarantee only people who knew what they were talking about would actually help.
