Here is what I cam up with
Cylinder 1 should be at position C or at 6 oclock on the Cylinder 4 exhaust notch
Cylinder 2 should be at position D or at 9 oclock on the Cylinder 4 exhaust notch
Cylinder 3 should be at position B or at 3 oclock on the Cylinder 4 exhaust notch
Cylinder 4 should be at position A or at 12 oclock on the Cylinder 4 exhaust notch

Here are the gaps in mm.

now question is hwo to get all of these in the .05mm gap range.  Still waiting on my shim tool, but once it comes in, can you swap shims around on the bike to get the right gap.  In other words can I pull shim from cylinder 4 exhaust and put it in cylinder 1 intake?  Not saying thats what I need to do just making an expample
