No comments from me except how do you propose checking the frame out? Just close inspection or bar through the headstock.
Keep the info coming as all is very interesting.

Going to make a jig up initially and use a high accuracy digital inclinometer to check various points. If I detect anything untoward I will cart it off to someone to check out/realign with the correct gear. Or perhaps get another frame.

The handlebars on my RS were gloss black Ash. I used to think how terrible they looked all scratched where the PO obviously kept other keys on the ignition key and they rattled about on the handlebars taking the paint off! When I restored the bike I had a leather key fob with the ignition key to prevent the same thing happening again.
