Helping hands for CB500/550 head cover installation

Somebody mentioned this in a thread a while back, but I can't remember whom it was to give the proper credit.

We've been warned about holding the rockers up when reassembling the valve cover so they won't be hung up on the valve stems and bend them when the cover is tightened down. Somebody mentioned stringing rubber bands across them and it works like a charm!
