"You presumably want to use a GSXR axle and RD400 wheel which comes with a much smaller axle stock.
Yes, if that's the right one u linked to above, you'll save me many more sleepless nights, and I owe you some beers!
Won't that make the bearing be 1mm proud of where it's supposed to sit? I was thinking an inner spacer, 42 by 26(so it won't ever touch the axle) by 1mm, so the bearing would be spot on. Going 1mm thicker on the spacer would be the same as a 14mm bearing, that may easier to locate... Thank for any advice!If you have to get a new bearing spacer, make one that's 1mm longer.
Shims are not the best idea because they will tend to drop out of position making it difficult to get the axle back through the wheel.

Yes, the inner races will be in the same locations as stock and the outer faces will be 1mm (or whatever the difference is) But......
He is replacing a 15 or 17mm axle with a 25mm axle and will need a new spacer to clear that larger axle anyway, so he has the option to move one bearing out slightly and use a slightly longer spacer.
