Your caps lock is on 
Finding the fork seals is a pain, they're 51mm, the biggest RWU's ever made.

Do you have the Ohlins or Paioli rear shock ?
As EC pionted out the fork seals are not the easiest to find , have you sourced these yet ?
Wheels - anyhting is lighter than the antera standard ones, 916/RSV fitment front , rear is bimotas own fitment though but the RSV one might be close. |

I guess you've wrestled with both - are the Oscams no lighter than the Anteras?

...
depends if your talking rear wheel or front wheel or overall
your running Oscoms, right?
In that case the Oscom rear is lighter than the Antera Rear....16.2kg against 16.4 for the Antera
Those weights are fully kitted wheels with tyres and discs and things
