Really nice! Too bad about the front end - been burned myself - ripped off twice for rear wheels on ebay. Don't do what I did and wait and give the crook the benefit of the doubt, that's mail fraud - go after him and at least get your money back. If it's from the US, well good luck, but if it was in Canada you've got a chance.
By the way, my GSXR front end and 17" wheel are 3" shorter than stock - I've had no ground clearance problems and the handling is fantastic - very responsive and very stable. There's less offset in the modern triple clamps allowing less rake and maintaining a safe amount of trail.

I got your message from dragbikes.com and have a bunch of questions. First and easiest, in this post, what do you mean by brokerage fees?

that is one "moist" ride my brother! Congrats on building one badazz machine.

That is painfull about the ebay burn. I think i would flip out. I get twitchy when it is going on two weeks and haven't received my purchases and have had no contact with the seller or tracking numbers sent. Anytime i ever sold something on ebay i had it in the mail within a day or two on receiving payment.

1975 Z1 900, 1075 wiesco kit, web cams, smooth bores, dyna ignition, denco pipe, lester mags, wicked bad rotors, custom gauge face plates .. not much stock left.
