Nice write up. In regards to brake pad spacing, I have a pair of door shims that I picked up at Ace hardware that are perfect for sliding between the brake pads to keep them separated and/or to compress the pistons. I put a piece of Delron round stock between the front brake lever and the throttle just in case as to not compress the lever because I am clumsy and would probably bump into the brake lever and screw everything up.
