I live north Shropshire (just 6 miles from Whitchurch.
I can shim your bike for you if you like.? I have LOADS of shims and the tool.
Let me know if I can help.

i agree - if you've not done it before yourself best to get someone to walk you through it...............

Steve - I have tried to PM you, but there is a problem with sending PM's at the moment, i.e. Debug can not send problem.

Here is the PM I tried to send you.

Hi Steve. Just off to the TT today, but back next weekend.
I could nip over on either Friday afternoon 15th June or the Saturday morning 16th June.
I run mine at 0.08 - 0.14. They will need setting cold, hence why I'll have to come over.
Just something to cover my fuel cost if I have to come by car, if it's nice I;ll take a run out on the Turbo bike.!
