Front Disc Bobbins

Hi all, my Sprint ST has just failed its CT (MOT) on excessive radial movement on the front disc. I know the bobbins are there to allow a little axial movement but not radial.
I have looked at the cost of a new disc and when I had recovered from my light headed moment I started searching for another fix.
I found that BMW and some others do a bobbin replacement kit.
Apparently, the bobbins are made from softer stuff than the disc and therefore wear first.
Has anybody heard about this or have experience?
I am going to remove the disc and drill out a bobbin and have a look later, will keep you posted

 

Hi and thanks for your reply.
No they dont unscrew they are riveted together in the factory
