How are you using a rubbermount engine in a 1999 frame?

yes i bought a wrecked buell i have the wire harness and everything, i need to find a 49mm throttle body that comes out the side that will hook up with the buell sensors also.  i talked to a mechanic today that told me that if i keep the speedo sensor plugged in it would work that i would have to run my factory speedo system to have a speedo.  this is my first project like this, it has been a lot so far, ive had to heat the back end of my frame and stretch it from 7 in to 8 3/4 in to fit this 180 rear wheel. i built my own swing arm out of 3/16 x 1 1/2 x 2 1/2 steel tube, a little over kill but it works with plenty strength.
