I'll be honest Daz, I don't understand your post. It lacks punctuation, which might help me.
What's this about grinding? Is this to do with clearance for the top of the clutch?

Sorry knowledge, I wish to buy a good quality kickstart shaft that doesn't need grinding down to clear the clutch casing

I've not gone wrong with genuine SIL but they have all needed a bit grinding to clear.
They are all ground to some extent when purchased, but with so many different clutch assembly variations I think it inevitable that some cleaning up is required.
Steer away from the unknown cheaper ones and use genuine SIL as the base level

The onley place that you can be sure of getting genuine SIL parts is Scooter restorations.

Be careful, as above, SR you know your getting genuine SIL.
eBay is a lottery, I have one which came in SIL (faked) packaging which was all over the place, fitted nowhere.
