    OK I got this type
    https://www.harris-performance.com/website/acatalog/0203brakekit.jpg AP
    brake kit from an ex BSB privateer. Gave me two sets of disks, this drilled
    type and some of the classic solid grooved type. Fitted the newer type as in
    the pic but they are incredibly loose on the carrier buttons, can move them
    around 2 or 3 mm. I can hear them rattling around as I ride, does anyone
    have experience of them and can comment on whether this is right?

    It is stopping amazingly well though! makes the standard pots seem sick.

    Floating disks perchance?

    They're fucked. Send them over to me and I'll chuck them in the bin
    for you.

    Yeah that sounds about right, thanks. Looked it over last night and there is
    probably scope for distorting/changing the shims to take up a little slack
    and stop them rattling quite so much
