Finding Capiper Seals
« on: April 18, 2005, 10:59:41 AM »
Hi everyone,
I am having trouble finding rear brake caliper seals from my '75 cb750f.  These are the 'O' rings that seal the pistons in.  Does anyone know where I can turn for these?  I am in Canada.
Thank you,
Shack  ???

I ordered mine from my local Honda dealer and mine is a K0 (circa 1969) which, frankly surprised me that they would still have them. Did you try your Honda dealer?

Yes, I tried my 2 local dealers with no luck.  Is there somewhere online to pick these up?  I have searched the dealers listed in the FAQ.

TRy Powersportspro.com.  They have a good selection of old bike parts.  I got a caliper piston for a CB 500 at a reasonable cost.
