Guys, in anticipation of shimming the machine now it's back up and running, (after a fashion), where do you guys buy your shims? Are there any in the club and we can swap in and out? Anyone have any lying around? Are they interchangeable with other models?

29mm over bucket shims used in all 903,1015,998 and 1089cc aircooled engines except of course the GPZ1100 Unitrack and others that use the 13mm under bucket ones.
Exchange shims are available to members through the club and new from CYBIKE etc.

Contact Jerry for the early type shims, I think it’s Ginger Bear for the later ones, there’s actually something about the shim swap service in the yearbook. :D

Will do I will break into it this week to measure up, so I should know what needs to go where and what I have to swap out. Thanks for the advice guys.
