[QUOTE="NigelDenham, post: 626829, member: 32435"] If you have M14 bolts holding the callipers on I’d guess the spindles (and callipers) have been swapped for later 73-on ones. The 71 model callipers take M12 bolts, and as you say to convert to later callipers you use M12 bolts with “conversion” bushes which also give the right spacing to line up with the disc. As you say the gap for the pads is 48mm on the one-yr-only model, and I think 54 or 55mm on the later callipers. I would say If you have later callipers with no conversion bushes fitted you must have later spindles. [/QUOTE]
