76 cb750 front caliper...
« on: July 12, 2009, 07:11:28 PM »
Has anyone got a working front caliper that I can buy? It's a 76 cb750. I can't find rebuild kits anywhere.

Thanks...

Isn't there one ring on each side of the piston?

Not unless your calipers are radically different than mine  ;D

1 piston side and the other is static

Part #8

Anything on the outside. On the inside and especially the groove the seal sits in be careful not to scratch it while getting it spotless. Check the piston for wear and pitting too as anything too big will let it weep, wear the seal prematurely or hang the piston up.

Good luck!
