Drewpy, if your interested, Im sure we can get on ou to you. PM me
okey dokey, got the spacer yesterday and it fits!!
I used one of the drawings for the SR and made a mock up with washers and plywood to get the gap right.
The disk is about 1mm from the fork lower and brings the caliper about a 1mm from the spokes.
for the bracket, it look slike I need 65mm x 180mm x 12.9mm ally plate and a rebate where the caliper is of 2.9mm. This will bring out the caliper off the fork leg mounts by 2.9mm. Still need to check that though.

Drewpy that set-up looks sweet! Well done 
My good news is my bracket is finally done! I met a fantastic bloke at a funeral of all places who said he could machine it for me. Twelve Titliests and a case of booze later and I have a nice, shiny new bracket.
I had Caddys design slightly modified so that it ran parallel to the fork leg and also added a bit more meat around the caliper mounting holes.
Now to work out the spacing for the disc, hopefully ill have time this weekend. Even though im running mags I dare say the dims will be much the same as yours Drewpy.
Caddy, thanks for all your help with the design, she came up a treat!!

nice jray, looks about the same as mine.
My alloy came yesterday, but I'm out weekend camping with the scouts.
We have a bank holiday this Monday so I can get stuck in then!

Nice work Drewpy, that bracket looks more professional than domestic!!
I've done my measurements and an 11mm spacer on the hub and 1mm spacers between the fork slider mounts and bracket will leave approx 2mm between the caliper and mags, and 2mm between the disc and fork slider. Drewpy it seems the dims differ slightly between mags and spokes. That said, I'll have to confirm once may spacer is made and I put it all together!
