they are a £2000 kit - calipers, pads, lines, rotors, spacers

no, Im not walking or driving yet im afraid...another few months maybe ...I didnt actually break my legs, in some ways, it would have been better than breaking nearly every bone in my feet and heels that bear all the weight frown

Bogie, seeing your post, and the OP's user name, it struck me that you could have asked the docs the reset your feet with a nice wide span to help on the downshifts biggrin

Hope you get out soon mate, worst case you'll be back in the saddle come spring!

Shangani did an interesting mod. Using existing calipers he used some sort of kit to extend the calipers outwards and fitted larger discs.

He will be along to tell you how.

About .5mm clearence with the wheel though.

Save yourself a packet and just fit the disks and pads.
