    I doubt there is much difference between your old GS ones and Bandit 600 ones - the pins and pads may be locatd differently and there may be two pistons instead of only one but fundamentally they are the same - if in doubt there is always the Haynes Book of Lies!

    Grim the two calipers are different in every way apart from using oil & pistons

    this is why i thought I'd ask as I've never worked on these floting calipers before.

    working in the dark here mate..
