Fitted up the rear swing arm and got one of the heads reassembled. New Shims in the exhaust closers to open things up, lotsa cleaning and all new bearings and seals.. I also didn't leave out any circlips.

Heads on after getting the proper closer spacer and then finding the ones I lost. New clutch is installed as well, its getting together. Timing belts timed and set to 110 hz. On a side note, I about went nuts when I couldn't recall if I put in the oil passage bushings between the case and the cylinder. I then remembered the bushing left a nice slice in my knuckle as I was doing a last degrease and wipe down before the cylinder install. Anyhow, I checked the torque on the oil cooler nipples as well and retorqued to 27 Nm with some thread sealant. Its funny how things like that reinforce double checking just to be sure.
