I get that and will. 
Anybody care to elaborate with the details of why?  Will it just run crappy i.e. not balanced, because of the different squish bands and compression?  (I'm lonely and don't watch tv.)

I just did all the wires and bypassed the ignition switch with a kill switch and ditched the blinkers. Wasn't that hard with a good crimper and the bullet connector kit and I reused some of the wires and plugs from a janky India harness.  Minimized voltage drop and added a fuse for the lights circuit.  Started on half a kick! I thought about a used harness, but 50 years of oxidation? I ain't got time fa dat!

yes

  I don't remember if I put the polished and cc'd heads on this bike I'm working on, or the other one, and a plug hole has stripped while cleaning and checking plugs.  The stripped head looks like some other spares I have in that there are small casting imperfections and the dome is not very shiny.
  What have people noticed about running a set of heads on an R5 where one head of a matched set needs a repair, and is replaced with one that is unchanged from its factory condition?   Stuff like how it runs and if stuff will go wrong?
I get that the compression and squish bands will be different.  Will there be required jetting variance?  What else?   
If the volume is close to the same, is that ok?  How much difference in volume is acceptable?

Basically, I'm hoping for some insight into what can happen if an engine is run, and bike is ridden with two heads that are of different internal volume and combustion characteristics.  Asking for  a friend.
Not a race bike, but I will flog it 

What is it about the Oregon part that you like better?

Stock stoplight lead on my 71 is yellow male.  Green goes to the rear stop switch and changes to yellow for light. 

Judas Priest's Stained Class, Sin After Sin, and British Steel always does it for me. After that, not so much, but I stopped listening to them after Point of Entry.  They seem to have done alright without me.     Very dramatic and almost cheesy, but who else can sing like Halford did?  And the rest of them did their things like no one before them, as far as I recall.

The plastic door looks like Kawasaki to me. R5 has different dampers and a round recess in middle.

I always knew about the mineral oil on the felts.  I took an ignition off of a 250 parts motor and there were not felts on it, just a bunch of reddish brown grease on the cam.  So, being a trusting fool decided that must be an ok way to do it, right? 

RUSH!!!!

I robbed a set of felts off of another unit so I'm all set, for now.  I'll buy another set off ya for the next one down the line though.

I'm working my way toward earning the capital "n".  I ask all the stoopid questions, twice, so  others don't have to!

I looked again and found the holes for felts.   I may change my user name to numpty.

Did the factory get rid of the felt pads on the 250?  I didn't see any evidence of there ever having been any on the ignition plate I'm using.  No holes or anything.  Just a bunch of red grease on the cam. 
My usual parts store says they'll have to order distributor grease.  Went to the next town over and they didn't have any either.  boo hoo hoo.  I guess all the locals jus' git it off the innerwebs.

Do you like the Lucas Red and Sticky?
