Maybe we should have a shim trading thread for the 750 twins? Make it a sticky at the top of the Engine forum. Shims are readily available for the other models, as far as I know, but it's getting real difficult to find shims for the 750 twins.

If any of the twin owners are interested, PM me and I'll see what I can do.
