78 cb750k caliper piston
« on: December 24, 2011, 03:53:34 PM »
Where can I find a replacement piston? I've searched all the "microfiche" sites, checked eBay, and I spent a few hours hunting, but I can't find one for the 78 cb750k. They all say "NLA", or they are for the "F" model, not the "K" Mine's pitted after 31 years of neglect  >:(

I've got the rest of the front brake system repaired/updated, but I can't find a piston. Where are they? Carpy has one for 90 bucks but he doesn't say what year or model it fits, and for that price I don't want to take a gamble.

Search ebay.  Easy to find there.  search for cb750k caliper piston.  $60.

ahh found it, but the $60 one is only for up to year 1976 and is a different part number than the 78's. I found a 78 from the same seller, but its $90  :'(
