yep 4 rows each its own length. I've left over facotry spokes off each end I donate some to broken spoke friends but see no reason to measure them whether a few to replace or buying new set so will let L.A.B. do his thing or google it to check L.A.B. measures adhead of time.

According to a previous thread on the Britbike forum:
However, it appears some vendors (including AN) specify '20' 063925 spokes instead of the original '10' 063925 + '10' 063924. :?

I got set of spokes also nipples an rims from Central Wheels the front spokes were four different set of ten but the lenght of the bent end was a little more than original. They did fit ok but if you are only changing the odd spoke it would look out of place. Having said that many of the old spokes were not correct lenght (filed flush to nipple) or correctly bent. Oh the joys of bodging previous owners

Anyone need wire spokes for a MK 3 can have mine (for postage from AUS)
they'd clean up alright for chroming etc and I have no use for them
Central spokes are definitely the ones to deal with for new ones. They sent me the wrong nipples but fixed that up and did not want the others back
Just be sure you specify exactly what you want as there is heaps of variations between models
The year and model should be enough sor them to go on provided the wheel is standard

Has anyone asked why they would put an excessive offset in to suit the brake rotor ?

Time Warp said:
The considerable amount of hub offset is necessary so the disc-side spokes clear the Norton Lockheed caliper. If the original caliper design had been narrower-or the fork legs moved further apart, then the wheel wouldn't have required so much offset.
