Awesome 'C-afe some really trick parts on there.

Just what IS the fork and wheel-set though? Looks kinda like a CBR1000F fork perhaps? I'm interested 'cause the rear caliper looks really close to stock yet the rotor for that bike is 276mm - I wanna convert the rear disc on a CB750F1 SOHC wire-spoke hub by drilling out the rivets, stick the 296mm discs up FRONT where they belong, the 276mm is still big but at least saves a little weight and clearance away from my Marzocchi Strada-II shocks, and yeah if THAT'S the CBR1000F caliper or some other version of 276mm disc then I'd JUMP on the thing. I figure it looks retro enough it won't screw up the whole vibe I'm going for.

But yeah I should think if you're gonna mention the mods to the bike, the fork and wheel swap is the most radical of a change you should mention THOSE details before the bog-standard 900 sump & cooler mod....
