i would 'nt use them myself mate.
they are to small, and you wont get full contact on the pads. might be ok for a few miles, but its yr lifeline the brakes init?

can you not get yr money back or swap them for the 310mm ones? are they gold inners? or just measure them. 300mm for the H,310mm for your L

nah, deffo different. i have a few sets of each, exactly the same pitch, but different diameters. different length forks on the h and l.

i cant see a way of using the h discs on the l.
on my H forks, i use h discs with the standard calipers, and L discs with the gsxr calipers.

if there any good, ie straight and no lipping at all on yr H discs, ill swap you some good L ones if you get stuck.
