Going by your graph, if you are currently the red, "Final Settings" from what I have read the highest one is still a little low. Reportedly the factory specs were tight, the modern thought is  .005" should be your goal.

I do like your chart, having done mine in a similar spreadsheet made it easy for me to compare my final clearances.

81 Honda CB750C - Current Project
67 BSA Spitfire MkIII - Next Up (Full Resto)
81 Honda GL1100 - Bob / CafeĀ“
80 Suzuki GS750L - Bratstyle
72 Honda CB450K5 - Basket Case
73 Honda CB350F Cafe' (Gone but not forgotten)

Don't wait for opportunity to knock... kick the door down and drag the old harlot in!
