HELP! Z1000H

Is there anyone who has a z1000H and has had problems removing the cylinder head? I've removed all the domed nuts and washers and managed to get to lift about 2mm most ot the way round, but it's stuck at the front. I've tried wooden wedges and even a flatened bar on the thicker lugs and soaked it with releasing agent. All the studs are loose and the locating pins are free, am i missing something?
Thanks Archie :?:

Hello Archie, I am guessing that you have also removed the 2 6mm bolts from the ends, Its not the exhaust studs catching on anything or the cam chain guide wheels getting hooked up? Regards, Steve

Thanks for the reply Steve, I've finally managed to shift the bugger. It took five days of swearing and sweating but it lifted, it was the front two studs that were corroded.
Thanks Archie
