Hey!! I really need help with that!! Are you making a post of it? That'd be nice. Can you send me the pics?

I would think the workshop manual would be sufficient.

now i know for a fact i was scammed!!! 2 years ago i bought my SP1 from the biggest Honda dealership in South Africa. with only 8 000 miles on the clocks. the bike looked brand new and spotless. so i reconed the miles on the clocks colaberate with the overall condition. soon there after i decided to do the valve clearance check. and all 8 shims were out of spec. but with a HUGE margin. i found it very strange. but either way, i replaced all 8 shims. so with all 8 shims out so far, i think someone screwed around with the speedo. what the saying; "nothing sells as easy as a low mileage vehicle" damn bastards! whats the easiest way to determine true mileage?

You haven't mentioned the facts that mean you were scammed.
How huge a margin are you talking on the shims? With shim heads it's normal practise to set them at maximum spec as they tighten up with use.
There is no way of knowing the true mileage on any vehicle, and it's irrelevant anyway. All that matters is that the bike is in good condition. Is there something about the bike that indicates high mileage?
