Man...my wheels weren't even close to stock in the back. The front wheels were dandy but the rear spacer on mine are something around 52-54mm(dont remember which) on the left side and 32ish mm on the right And I had to space the sprocket to keep the chain straight. The rear brake assembly fits, i know, but Im gunna have to extend the slot outward 8-10mm. As of now Ive been using the gs450 assembly with a bent up copper bar for stabilizing. Works well, but it looks atrocious. Dont suppose you could throw up some rear and left side pics?

Good news; I got the head off and all is well inside the cylinder.  There is one of the cam journals with some damage but is ok after a bit of work.
New valve stem seals are on the way so hopefully he will be back up and running in a week or so.    Smiley

Yea, like my wife is going to be all fired up about me leaving again so soon.  I spent over a month, 24/7, working on the bike before the ride; then the weekend of the ride.  
She seems to think I owe her a significant amount of time working on the "finish the kitchen project" that I was in the middle of before the bike stuff took center stage .... you know how this works, eh ?

OOOOOOOOH, the silky smooth machined and polished piston top is almost sensual to the touch; the gently textured side skirts ........

Normal retail from Wiseco is $200 and some change;  I got this one for $99 on ebay  Wink

I was on the phone with a Sudco rep asking if I could get the pistons through them and get the dealer discount for it... could not ... but while talking to him he checked ebay from his end and said there was one for sale at that moment for $99.  So I said thanks and jumped on ebay and bought it right then.
There were a couple of other ones in assorted sizes for $169
