Here's a trick I learned too late. You will most likely have to release the tension on the cam chain tensioner, because you'll need to remove the water pump housing and it supports the water pump shaft bearing, and to reassemble all this stuff, the tension on the cam chain has to be loose. But if the cam chain is loose and you take the shaft out, you will lose your cam timing. So....get the bike to TDC and hook a bungee cord to the cam chain sprocket and take it straight up and tie it off, to pull the cam chain sprocket tight against the cam sprockets, thus maintaining your cam timing. Disregard the green arrows in the pic.
