Right folks, just got a secondhand cylinder head to swap onto to my 1150 GS.
Besides a head gasket is there any other bits and pieces I need to order.

Thanks Steve.
 
Generally no

Exhaust gaskets usually last Maybe the Sparkplug tunnel gasket as they swell and can tear

Worth checking cam chain tensioner and guides when you are in there

The o-ring on throttle body at the air-tube connection can be a pain to re-use. Keeps squirming out of place when tube is re-attached. Now I have new one as spare.
Check lower throttle cable for wear and sticking. New cables were a great improvement on mine recently.
