Anyone did this before? Also known as top-overhaul?

I understand that the mechanic will dismantle everything and inspect the engine for wear and tear and replace parts that need replacement. Replace the gaskets and sealants and put everything back together, check for the piston offset that should be within allowance given by the owner's manual and put back the carburetors . Check them to be in tune . Fix back the tank and seats and ready to go.

Is that so?

- do they need to hang the engine? Or do they keep it on the bike only removing the top of the engine.

- is there any cleaning to be done on the insides of the engine? removing of water or fluids , carbon in the interior.

- anything I might have missed?

Thanks a lot.

So far haven't done it before so no experience. Asking around first.
