Default Outer Cam Shim

So I tore my bike down last night to do my Cycle-Rama cam install, everything went fine. I got home from work today and started re-assembly, going good...got to the point of checking the cam/crank gear alignment. Of course its 10 thousands off. Call both my local dealers for the 25734-06 cam shim I need to complete.....neither have it in stock!!! 3-5 days to get it here. I called the next closest dealer to me which is an hour away...they have it but I would not make it in time before they close. So now I have to get off work early and run a 100 mile round trip for a $5.00 part!....ERRRR...never ends..... Oh well....Thanks for letting me vent......
