drifterwannab, as I think stimpy already mentioned, it's worth your while just giving Graeme France a call.
He'll sort you out with anything you need for a 23.
Regarding the 29 to 23 rear wheel conversion; this has little effect on the overall gearing, let alone speedo accuracy, assuming you use the standard size rear sprocket from the 29 which is smaller than the 23.

Gullarm76 - yeah one of the down pipes had cracked away from the manifold plate and there a hole in the underside of the collector

I have just welded them up for now, will get a stainless at some point

Back end of the bike is all stripped off now and under going a pimp up

Right decided to give it a service and put it back together and the 600rr conversion is on hold till winter.

Me and and me mate threw some paint on the farings, still need to get the side fairings sorted and gone put some stickers on to break it up a bit
