The picture above, details two different styles of brake shoes that may be used on a CT-70.

The shoe at the right (the "clean one") is used, and shows a "much thinner" pad lining.

The one at the left is "brand new", and is Honda part number: 45120-GAG-003. I purchased 4 of these, but when I tried to install them, the springs I had were too long (because of the different location of the Brake Return Spring Holes). Since I did not have the right springs, I could not install them.

If anyone has a CT-70 model that uses these types of shoes (the one at the left), I would appreciate receiving information about the model year of the bike, or the "length" of springs required to allow me to use these new shoes. If you happen to have a "Honda Part Number", that would be great too. Of course, I'll post any information received right here, for all to benefit from.
