The optimum position of a rear calliper is in the range of 10 to 2 o'clock - no advantage/disadvantage which side of 12 o'clock high they are. On a 1600 you haven't got much clearance forward of 12 o'clock as the trailing arm runs very close to the hub. Anyone who's done R31's will know what I'm talking about.

after looking at my rear discs today, seems very simple to move the caliper to the front of the disc, is this an advantage/disadvantage or makes no difference??
