Thanks Dave. Yeah your calipers are definitely different than the ones I was sold. Do you know what yours are off of? Thank you for the picture!

Mine are the original ones from the 78 1000.

Thanks John. My outside of disc to outside of disc measurement is 4.650" or about 118mm.

I am indeed using the round pads on the solid rotors. But like I mentioned, it doesn't have anything to do with the pads yet, as it is hitting on the mounting bracket as I tried to show in the previous picture. Hereis a side view of the setup I am using.

As far as the axle length goes, being too short would just mean that I need a larger spacer on the right hand side to space the fork lower out farther, and hence meaning the axle would be too short.

not completely positive but that caliper in the picture looks like an early GT caliper . Both of my 78 1000's have the same caliper as Dave's
