They were the same part number yonks ago before they started superseding all the part numbers. There used to be loads of people that used to re shoe brakes. You can still get them done for around £15 for the pair  ;)

Back tracking to these brake shoes : Had a dig about and found two OEM sets. ASK-1037SR2 are the 390 type and ASK-A7GG are the 323 type. Two different manufacture part numbers  ;)

Spent a few hours today trying to get the calipers to sit flat to the disc. A little hard as I have a tiny lip on the disc and after all my efforts I still had the right caliper toeing out by 0.65 top and 0.70 at the bottom. Had a measure up of the left caliper and that was not sitting flat to the disc.
I am not sure now how flat these should sit to the disc.

Dont ever remember checking that Graham, as its a swinging caliper the pads wear at an angle(of sorts) anyway.

The left is the standard factory set so, the right has to be a mirror image. I need half a mm at the rear of the caliper ( closest to the fork) as with the disc spinning the pad will digs in on the right side at the moment with the measurements shown. If that makes sense ?
