Re: BGM front dampers, too short....
You could check you have the fat lower bump stop if its not new ,there are different sizes about ,or not 100% ideal but a thin packer between the fork and bump stop would move the link up relative to damper bracket you might need slightly longer bolts.

Re: ts1 dream buid, what components would you use ?
I spoke to Harry Barlow at wickstead about a 62mm crank in a ts1 and was advised against it as it would result in too high an exhaust timing he said 60mm was the way to go for a touring style engine.

grease or oil the seal and keep rotating the crank as you pull it into place then as you push down the mag flange.
