BT090's fit and it's looking good, will post some pics later.
Debating whether to run auto lube or not. Apart from blanking plate what else will I need? What is everyones opinion on this. Pre mix or pump?

Good to have it on the floor instead of hung from garage roof.
Just sorting top yoke out at minute. Converting an old rgv one for now and have a nice one made when funds are up.

That's looking well smart What are you going for on the top yoke, A billet one is about £300.00 I converted an RGV one by fitting bolt on risers and a carbon yoke cover. Total cost £30.00 Or the one I'm building at the moment, sent the top yoke to NK racing who supplied and welded on a pair of risers & blasted it for £60.00

Just to get it nearer to up and running I was going for the £30 riser same as yours but in time when cash permits I'll have a yoke made by the lad who made my R1 yoke.
Did you drill through the 6mm thread on th underside of the yoke?

Did you drill through the 6mm thread on th underside of the yoke? Yes, drilled through the rear 6mm thread to ensure both risers were lined up, I also made some steel plates which pick up the front and rear holes, these were used to spread the load from the M10 riser bolts and form the clock mounts.

Top yoke and clamps are now sorted, one of my mate had a spare pair in his garage off one of his old Gixers with 40mm rise. I've got them on a very long term loan until I can afford a pretty new yoke and clamps. I've now sprung a leak there is a little drip coming from one of the pots. To be fair it does look like the head gasket has been removed with a rusty old screw driver in the past. I'm gonna try wet and dry on a pain of glass first to hopefully flat it down sufficiently, failing that they'll need skimming but I suppose I'll have to feck around with ignition timing then. This build started off with fantastic pace now I think the bikes against me the little fecker!
