Need Caliper Help
« on: October 06, 2014, 09:25:14 PM »
I searched, hondacb650.com, Here, and google, multiple times and couldnt find what i was looking for.
I tore down my 650 this last weekend, and upon tear down, the front brakes that i knew needed attention, needed more than i thought, the caliper needs to be rebuilt.

I dont need a piston, and i can find the inner seal, but i cant find the caliper dust boot, or slider dust boots anywhere, I am debating a swap to a newer more available for rebuild caliper, is there any that are a direct bolt on? or did they use the same tokico on a 750, and i just cant find that either.

I might have access to a nighthawk, anyone have a link for that swap?

If your caliper is the single piston they are the same as the CX500, if that helps ;D
