Would like to know the thicknesses of the shim(s) that people used on each side of the wheel, sprocket side and brake side?

The shim thickness can vary depending on exactly which GSXR wheel/sprocket drive/brake hanger you are changing to. 
Measure the distance not taken up by the wheel assembly and divide by 2.
This will give you the thickness of shim needed.

This is what I did.  Probably more work and unneeded fussing on the spacing. Others have spaced theirs equally on each side and I've heard no complaints. 

I was as concerned about getting the sprokets to line up.
