Very little if any (IIRC), there is a major offset difference in the wheels. Wheel offsets should be in that SELOC techwiki.
2010 Honda VFR1200F
1990 Honda VFR400 NC30
2000 Honda VTR1000 SP1
2000 Kawasaki ZX-7R

I've got a N/A Honda S1 and a SC Honda S1 in at the minute. :thumbsup

With regards to driveshafts I would definitely stay clear of S1 rover outer CVs. Ford tarnsit connect joints are a good bit bigger and fit the splines in the hub.

Custome made shafts are definitely the only way to do it and unfortunately, significantly add to the cost of the conversion.
