If you buy new, the spring rates should be for the bike,
The SH shocks could be to hard, or to soft,
Also, jacking the back up by nearly an inch should make it less likely to scrape on corners
Will your mate let you try them?
Might be the way forward

The flutter, is it front brake?
Or rear?
If it is rear, remove wheel, and tyre,
After finding an engineer that can spin the whole thing in a lathe,
And get them to just remove enough to take care of the oval,

Not really,
2 6ft straight edges would
The idea is you put it around the front wheel,,about 8in from the ground, then pull equally both sides to the rear wheel,
As the rear tyre is wider, the string should just touch the leading edge of the tyre,
Next you check the gap at the front tyre,
It's fairly easy to see if both sides are equal.
If not, adjust the rear wheel as necessary

Align the rear wheel with string and the front wheel
That's the best way

Ram air was mainly a gimmick,
But it could help cool the head,
But unlike 4 strokes, it has no valves, guides etc,that need cooling,
Check out air cooled multi row aircraft radial engines with ducting

That looks fun,
A few of us attended the one in 2019,I think
Easy to get to, head east on the A14,turn off at Stowmarket,
I went on the Friday, we were treated to a subsidised evening meal, I sat next to Neil Tuxworth, oh the stories about Honda,
Found a lovely B&B,
also Aldeburgh near by,
After the Saturday show, I got together with a few others,
A very nice Indian restaurant was found,
Sunday, after breakfast, set off home, why did it always rain around Cambridge!!

Didn't realise you were running non standard pods and exhaust
As others will comment, short pods don't work well,
The intake length is designed to work with a plenum chamber/airbox
It's to do with the pulses of the airstream
Good luck
