Where to buy parts?
« on: April 29, 2008, 09:50:43 AM »
I've looked I swear, I just cannot navigate this forum properly.  I need brake rebuild parts, I found a kit on ebay that offers parts I dont need and I hate ebay.  I look online and I cant find anyone who offers both fork seals and caliper rebuild kits.  Seriously I'm goin nuts, its been a frustrating week and I just cant get my head around finding this stuff. 

Any help? 

I tried the FAQ section for a supported vendor but found nada, I'm sure its here somewhere but where????

its for a 73 cb750

76 cb550

Don't know if they have exactly what you need but servicehonda.com is my favorite vendor.

Seen this yet?

Where can I buy parts for my SOHC? The online resource list.

In the FAQ section.  Z1 seems to have what you need.

thanks for the link, Z1 doesnt offer caliper rebuild kits for my 73' only a MC kit, which seems to be the standard at every place I go to...

The only thing typically replaced in the caliper during a rebuild is the caliper piston seal, which should be available via Honda.  What else do you need?

I get all of my brake parts from my Honda shop...

Go here; www.powershondaparts.com. At first glance it doesn't look like the kind of place that would stock old parts but don't let that fool you. Go to OEM parts and follow the promts. You'll find brand new parts at reasonable prices!! I found this page just a little while ago.... actually about 10 ebay purchases to late :(
Will some tell me where the gosh darn kill switch is!!!

Me too.......Honda is $ but best when doing brakes anyway. Just did my caliper and master. BTW my piston was shot (leaky) and had to be replaced ($60 Honda). Complete rebuild about $100. Works sweet, like new.
