Delboy's Garage, Motorcycle Front Brake Caliper Rebuild Part 2.

Winters coming, and for those who ride all year round, you're bound to end up with clogged up brakes, easy enough to strip and clean, so time for a little pre-winter house keeping.

[@mstrachan27]

Out of all the video's on KZbin this is the best by a country mile, great help Thank you

[@belleviewable]

Cheers Del re watched this and "essential winter brake cleaning". All set now your videos are some of the very best on the internet.Thanks a bunch!

[@Ggordonhorseballs]

Feeling a lot more confident after watching this superbly done "simple as it needs to be" video. I've done my share of car brakes but most of my m/c brakes were drum, so I needed to get some instruction on doing it properly. Thank you!

[@Moonfleet41]

+jeff sharron Hi Jeff... thanks buddy, glad the videos can help you sir..

[@omblae]

Del mate, sorry to bother you again but just wanted to say I've been having this sticky front brake issue ever since I got my bike and ran across this video - thought it sounded verryyy similar so went and got the front wheel in the air, spun it and found the wheel was binding. After taking each calliper off i narrowed it down to the left side calliper, bought some seals and thought i'd give it a crack... And it bloody worked!! Salt and crud was all in the seals just like you said, cleared it out popped the new ones in (the right way round!) and brakes are absolutely perfect now! Saved me 100 quid in garage labour, I feel proud as all sin and I feel like I understand how my brakes work now. Honestly mate, I know I comment on just about all of your videos but I just wanted to give my thanks to you and Pen once again for your help - I just wouldn't have even touched it if it weren't for your vids!

[@Moonfleet41]

Hi mate, wow that is magnificent! That is exactly why we load the videos up and for no other reason, to keep our fellow riders safe and save you money... so to hear this makes us other very happy indeed! Well done to you mate, it takes a great leap of faith to attack something you don't know about that is safety related, you could even go as far as to say that it is, in fact, a courageous thing to do! So good on yer fellah, you should be proud of yourself... always drop me a line if you need any tips or advice, we're always happy to help! Ride safe, Del & Penny

[@randolph50]

It's funny. I've watched so many of your videos now, that I hear your voice while I'm working on my bike. :-)

[@Moonfleet41]

Thanks mate....appreciate your kind comments.. and yeah, copperslip is fine, we use that expressly because it doesnt melt and run onto the brakes.! just done use too much, a light smear is all you need. good luck, Del.

[@titimustv]

Cheers Del, found some, I'm doing 6 pots so they cost a bit more than £11 unfortunately. I bought a Laser piston removal tool which made pulling out the stiff pistons without damaging them very easy. I've also made a scraper from a piece of scrap aluminium. A mates got an ultra sonic bath so once I've got the worst of the corrosion off I'll get him to drop the caliper halves in for a soak. Thanks again for your help, gave me much more confidence to get on with the job. Tim

[@richardmeaney325]

One of the best and interesting instructionals I have ever viewed. Well done to you all . I'm now a dedicated follower of Delboy! I'm 40 years a bike man.

[@Moonfleet41]

Welcome aboard, thank you very much for your kind words!

[@gregritchie1758]

Hi Delboy, I nice, nice job describing the processes in takes 1&2. I've never done brakes and you have taken the mystique out of the process. It all now makes total sense. Thanx a bunch for your help. I've book marked your video and will look for more help on other topics in the near future.

[@hughiemg2]

Thanks, this is a job I'm saving for the winter for my track bike

[@nickkaratatis3780]

Mate I know this is an old video but I just wanted you to know that it is still helping people! I just discovered your channel and wanted to also say a big thank you for what you do. Nick. Melbourne, Australia.

[@Moonfleet41]

Thank you Nick, good to hear from you mate, and welcome aboard. We hope that life in Oz if getting back to normal in some way now, we've been riveted to the news covering the fires, and cannot believe the devastation... God speed to you all down under and keep in touch.. Del.

[@design3955]

Hello!!! I have a Bandit like yours here in Brazil, and I say one thing, you already helped me a lot with your videos, congratulations !!! Keep it up!!!

[@Moonfleet41]

Thank You Eduardo, that's very kind of you, we're glad we could reach out and help! Ride safe, and thanks for taking the time to comment, much appreciated!

[@MrAmikeymonkey]

great video - handy tip on seals to orientate them correctly - I put the fluid tube from the bleed nipple into a small plastic bottle and zip tie it to the wheel

[@dvsamsmith]

thanks del, the way in which you explain things is very easy to understand. I've rebuilt my rear calliper last year using your other vid with success, watched this to refresh my memory, i'll get cracking on the front now, many thanks, sam

[@Moonfleet41]

Good luck with it Sam, give us a shout if you get stuck... glad we can help!

[@jembo1959]

I am working on a 94 Honda Steed 400 and was working on the front caliper next, you could not have explained this any better I have the whole lot stripped and ready for new parts, thanks very much great videos 1 and 2.

[@Moonfleet41]

jimmy galloway Nice one Jimmy, glad it helped you out mate... good luck with it.. Del.

[@iplayrealguitar8]

You are. Without doubt. The most helpful, most knowledgable, honest decent bloke doing motorcycle related videos on here, just did this on my bandit today on the front calipers, using only your video for reference.. Took me about an hour or so all together, brakes working beautiful. Got charged 70 quid to have my rear calliper refurbed the time before the last time it fucked up.. Thank you.

[@Moonfleet41]

Why thank you kindly sir....its a pleasure to be of help....i could fix bikes for other people, and probably earn a living at it....but then you don't learn anything yourself, and that is what its all about...like the proverb says.."Give a man a fish and he eats tonight....give him the means with which to fish...and he eats every night...!!!!

[@matthewkirk89]

I've been watching your videos for the last few days, absolutely brilliant! I've now got the confidence to do my own servicing. I spent this afternoon cleaning out the calipers, pressed too hard on a piston and one shot out spewing fluid all over the floor. With your rebuid video I was able to calmly swear and then get the job done with minimal mess. Thanks!

[@Moonfleet41]

Jolly well done Sir! Not just for taking on the job yourself, but for rescuing it when it went a bit wrong... the biggest fear is the fear of the unknown and the worry of being stuck, then having to turn to a professional at great expense... but it's never that hard, if you calmy look at it and ask yourself 'how hard can it be?'! Thanks mate, Del

[@russbug3766]

I Have a Kawasaki zx6r J1 it has 6 pistons in each caliper and every single piston is sticking so today is caliper strip and clean day, i watched your vids and although i do have the knowledge to do mine its always good to refer to your vids just for that extra idea or too and i have to say your tips are spot on. gonna have your motorbiking babies

[@kenspong4082]

I just did a caliper rebuild arfter swaping out my forks on my zxr 250 thanks for your vid helped me heaps

[@Moonfleet41]

Hi Pete, Are you asking me to explain how to bleed the brakes up..?, its all in the video, i covered it step by step....what wasn't clear mate?, let me know in a PM, and ill see if i can help, thanks for watching, Del.

[@garrymuir1442]

Fantastic, step by step, informative videos. Certainly given me confidence to do it my self and stop paying though the nose to stealership. You've got me hooked on you videos, best of seen so far.

[@Moonfleet41]

Ha ha, thanks Gary, you are too kind mate.. im glad you like them and can make use of the videos to save some beer vouchers... stay safe buddy, and thanks for wathicng... Del.

[@zdlr500]

Hey Dellboy. Just wanted to say thanks very much for the vids. Had a problem with my front brakes seizing on my sv650. This being my first bike i didnt know much, but I totally stripped them down, cleaned and put new seals in them. Looking forward to removing my back caliper for a clean. Thanks again

[@M1K3R0LPH]

Really starting to appreciate your 'how to' videos, especially being a new rider. What you mention at the end is spot on too, the more you can diagnose and fix things will make you more aware and ultimately stay out of trouble (plus bragging rights). Bit late, but well deserved on getting in with Discovery.

[@fazerthofzs9123]

thanks delboy you are a star ! was not looking forward to doing this watch vid job done thanks again neil

[@Moonfleet41]

NIce one Neil, makes you feel epic to do it yourself eh?... ride safe fellah...

[@tttrevin]

I just rebuilt my calipers tonight thanks to your videos. Thank you so much!

[@Moonfleet41]

Glad it helped buddy, it's just good housekeeping aye?!

[@josedaniel4725]

Very informative video, thank you for your time 👍🏼✌🏽

[@Moonfleet41]

My pleasure, glad it helped.

[@TheIcegoblin]

Just overhauled my front Brembo callipers on my Triumph, your video guides gives us self servicing bikers the confidence to do the work ourselves and save pounds. Thank you Del

[@Moonfleet41]

Thanks buddy, glad the videos can help you out.. always drop us a line if you need to, happy to help ,ate.. Del.

[@Moonfleet41]

Well done Tom, thats why we make the videos so guys can get their bikes safe and on the road without huge costs....take care and well done again for getting it done yourself... ride safe, Del.

[@m2895]

I wish I had watched this guide before I started. Had a bloody mare of a time! Stripped calipers, cleaned thoroughly and bought new seals but still have sticky pistons. Shall take pistons out and see if seals are right way round.

[@scottmurray5600]

I absolutely loved these two videos. it gave me the knowledge to service my Kawasaki ZZR-1100 brakes. The brakes were binding badly after about 18 months riding and it was costing me a fortune through a garage to get serviced properly. Now it's a cheap repair, takes a reasonable amount of time and I understand a wee bit more about how my bike works. THANK YOU Del Boy, you are a real gentleman. WHY is this not taught to bikers?

[@Moonfleet41]

Hey buddy, I guess nobody in the industry... (the industry that's set up to make money from us that is)... is gonna be too eager to tell you how to sidestep their workshop charges, but I see it just as housekeeping and something we should all get involved in, if we can! Good on yer mate, and thanks for your support... ride safe, Del

[@Moonfleet41]

If it's so badly stuck that the hydraulics won't move it with all the others G-clamped hard & held still,then the only other sanction you have is to strip the caliper in half,get all the others out the way & use heat to try expanding the soft aluminium casting away from the steel piston,try first dropping in boiling water,if that fails try a hot gun if all that fails,you calipers is pretty shagged anyway,so give it a last try,gently, with a blow lamp-grip the piston & rotate it to wiggle out

[@theworth123]

Hi Del, first class vids and instruction, well done! I'm an ex-pat living in Bulgaria always thought a Triumph Bonneville would suit me me here on the Black Sea coast but with no dealerships or parts available and my lack of practical knowledge it was always going to be a thought, or so I thought, then I found your brilliant vids and instruction. I plan to go to Blighty and bring back a Bonneville with the parts I think I'd need and take the plunge. Thanks to you my thoughts and dreams can become a reality. Cheers and take care. Tony.

[@Moonfleet41]

Hi Tony, what a heart warming story... it is an honour to be able to play a small part in fulfilling your dreams... always feel free to contact us, any time, as we're always happy to help... and remember, you can always post off for parts through the wonders of the inter-web! Make sure you check out TEC Bike Parts ... as they have an enormous source of great extras for your Bonneville, give a great service and at real world prices... good luck and ride safe, my friend, enjoy oyour Bonnie, all the best, Del & Penny

[@jfv65]

a little old school trick i use to help bleeding: once you have some fluid inside the caliper, gently tap the caliper (using the plastic grip of a screwdriver) between each bleed. This helps to shock free any trapped air bubbles inside the caliper so they will collect in one larger bubble at the highest point inside caliper. The bleedscrew is usually located at the same highest point. This way your bleed action will be faster with less loss of fluid. just my 2ct

[@jamesdutton6406]

Another fantastic video keeping it simple great explanations throughout

[@johnkimble1647]

Thanks Del. This was really helpful in alleviating my fear of doing a caliper rebuild.

[@Moonfleet41]

John Kimble Most welcome John, glad it can help you mate... good luck with yours.. Del.

[@donkeyhead50]

excellent stuff mate has given me confidence to do mine now thanks

[@kunalkhanna985]

Very informative and detailed. Kudos Del. I saw lots of other videos that were informative but not detailed like yours. I feel I can do the job now after seeing your videos part 1 n 2. As always, keep up the good work!

[@mclennan1024]

I'm a new subscriber to your channel and what your doing is fantastic, Brake calipers always scared me but you explained it in a simple manor that it was easy to understand..Many thanks

[@Moonfleet41]

Well done Robert, thats the way, there is nothing better then doing a few jobs on your bike for yourself....good luck with it, and thanks for the sub.. take care, Del.

[@eddiexblue]

Excellent tutorial - and you may have just saved me from brake failure! Just rebuilt a set of Brembos and having watched your video I was concerned about my 'bodgyness' so I took the caliper apart again. Guess what? One of the seals was in the wrong way round! Eek! I thank you - off to watch the rest of your episodes!

[@Moonfleet41]

Well spotted Eddie, glad you noticed it in time. Thanks for watching and ride safe.. Del.

[@ryis4812]

Yes master don. Your advice is clear, I'm now gonna do mine. Looking at caliper sales, even a secondhand pair cost around the £200 mark.

[@sunnyjames1117]

Thank you for posting this 2 part video, it is really very informative if someone is working on their motorcycle brakes , saves the hassle and time running around for parts. Thanks a lot, i thought i might have to replace my caliper and assembly, but ended up rebuilding it.

[@Moonfleet41]

You're welcome buddy, glad it could help you out, all the best, Del

[@elliott212]

Thanks Del. Just rebuilt my Sportster front caliper. Pistons were seized just like yours. Symptom was pulsing brakes. Lesson for me was not to assume disc runout. Also, Harley say not to lube pistons with brake fluid as this will increase lever travel. I used the grease that was supplied with the rebuild kit. Cheers.

[@Moonfleet41]

Good to hear it mate, I always use red rubber grease when I assemble calipers, it also conditions the rubber and helps keep it soft... glad you got yours done!

[@tttrevin]

Always know where to go to get advice. Thanks Del.

[@Moonfleet41]

Ha ha, thanks mate, as long as i dont have to wear makeup, that would be very sad...lol.. thanks for watching chap, and good luck nailing the chompers back together.. Del.

[@Moonfleet41]

Hi Anne. If you've emptied the system, you'll always struggle to get the system refilled from dry, easiest way is to prime the hose first by sucking some fluid into it manually, then bolt it back on and it will be much easier to pump the new fluid though once there are just little bits of air left. once you get it going, the method is to pump the lever a few times, hold it in to the bar, then 'open-and-close' the nipple, this way you pressurize the line which creates suction to help it bleed up

[@simonaustin280]

Hay del your video help so much just rebuilt my front and rear callipers on my honda RR1 with no problems thanks bud.

[@robertwhite9013]

Hi del. thanks the help' I changed the seals done a rebuild they was in bad condition the aluminium was bit pitted behind the seal. I injoyed doing the stripping an cleaning. Followed you instructions putting them back together an bled brakes up. The bikes in poor condition some one used it in all weather!. Got some wheel bearings for next job, Good videos keep up the good work!.

[@Moonfleet41]

+robert white Thanks Robert, glad you got all the jobs done, glad the videos can help you out.. appreciate you taking the time to let us know, always feel free to drop us a line if you need a tip or two! All the best, Del

[@eshu918]

Thank you for posting this vid. Been debating tackling this job for a while. Pads changed brakes bled still suffering from lack of feel . This video makes it clear to me the probable issue. Im on it Thanks again!

[@mshawnmhulett]

This is a great guy . Very knowledgeable thanks for the vids please keep them coming!!!!!!

[@jimbo80982]

Haynes manual always says "repeat a few times" but you actually need to do it for days! Use the syringe method Delboy suggested , that is the best way. You can do it without but it will take FOREVER. It took us 3 days of pumping te lever to bleed my dad's R6 brakes manually!

[@M4rkle]

Thanks again for the advice Delboy. I will certainly give that a go and hopefully that'll do the trick :)

[@brandywell44]

Ive always had trouble bleeding brakes and only eventually succeeded when Ive reverse flow bled them. Im going to try this pumping the lever a few times before each opening of the bleed nipple and see if it works for me. Thanks for the tip. Top man for sharing your skills, Im really enjoying your catalogue of videos, thankyou. FYI My last bike was a Harley Sportster but mostly I was into Moto Guzzi 948cc v-twins but had a few power screen Suzukis and all these bikes were not so much for riding but for enjoying tinkering with. Last year I got back into bikes and bought a brand new Yamaha Vity 125cc, my first scooter and a great bike, and had a great time riding the lanes around here in North Warwickshire. A month ago my dealer Tamworth Yamaha (top bunch of people) offered me a great deal that I just couldnt refuse on a brand new older model 250 Xmax and Im enjoying that (though not the salt and sand its covered with after riding). First service this Friday at the dealer after 600 miles running in. Riding a bike...the next best thing to flying.

[@Moonfleet41]

A sure fire method is to 'up end' the system, take the calipers off, hang them on the roof of the garage above the MC,stick a chunk of old number plate between the pads to be the disc & then bleed them upwards,you're not working against physics & fighting the air trying to push the fluid back up, trying to pump fluid downwards is the problem, this way it should bleed first time.If this doesn't work, you may need to prime the hoses first by sucking fluid into them through the bottle,good luck Del

[@Moonfleet41]

Hi mate,first job break the hydraulics,take the banjo off the caliper & remove the bleed nipples,take out the caliper bolts & rotate the entire caliper gently to snuggle the pads back a touch,if this fails & is truly seized,simply spilt the caliper in situ,take out the 4 bolts that hold the 2 halves of caliper together,it will fall in half & come off.Soak the halves in boiling water to expand the alloy & work the pistons out by rotating them with soft jawed pliers,good luck with it,take care Del

[@Moonfleet41]

Thanks Mike, Thats right, intimate familiarity with your bike and its condition is a great way to be, the more you have fettled and fiddled with yourself, the closer you are to knowing when something is about to let go... and that keeps you safe... Thanks for watching buddy,, Del.

[@Moonfleet41]

Hi mate. if its moving then at least its serviceable and you can ride with it, it will work ok...but if there is corrosion in there it wont ever get much better..corrosion doesn't heal..lol..and if you took the time to rebuild it, even though its not critical right now, you would be rewarded with a caliper that operates like new..and that will last for a few years before it need attention again..plus also, you can often 'catch' the terminal corrosion early and prevent the need for a new piston

[@Moonfleet41]

Well done matey, and good on you for getting stuck in.. its only house keeping after all...good luck with it and let me know if you get stuck.. take care..Del.

[@Moonfleet41]

Phuq YES its damn dangerous buddy, it will jam a piston up solid and lock the brakes on..get them done right now. I just use a finger dab of brake fluid to lube the seals into place, you can use a very light smear of grease or rubber lube too, anything is better than fitting them dry,it helps with assembly. i feel that if you just use brake fluid then you have NO contaminants, but grease wont contaminate to any determent, so either way is good,and red lube is silicon based and prevents perishing

[@M4rkle]

Many thanks for the swift response Delboy! You clearly are better at keeping up with your emails than me!! It's a 2008 Suzuki DL650 V-Strom. I've only recently bought the bike and the brakes feel a little spongy so I have a feeling they haven't been bled properly in the past. I'm used to handling older (and arguably simpler!) bike so this is slightly uncharted territory!

[@Moonfleet41]

Sure thing Steve, thats why we post them up, it makes me happy and content to know that you are getting something meaningful from it, and can take those first steps to keeping your own bike on the road and your money in your pocket rather than handing it over to the dealer by the bucketful. thanks for taking the time to comment buddy, and ride safe, Del.

[@Spike-rj6ye]

absolutely fantastic, Im just about to rebuild my gs500f front caliper and had no idea about the seal orientation. saved me a crashed bike my friend!

[@tv4fun]

Superb !! Going to give mine a re fresh after seeing this video. Thanks for making it.

[@stevensteel8617]

Thanks very much for yet another confidence inspiring video. Before I do any work on the bike now I have a little look to see if you have a video on it. You help me to avoid some of the pitfalls. This week I have changed my fork seals, bushes and oil, my front bearings and my rear brake disc and pads. The calipers were very dirty though and not all pistons move freely so I have ordered some kits for all three calipers. My calipers are only single sided on my 2007 Honda NT700VA-7 so they are somewhat easier to disassemble but following your advice I hope to refurbish my calipers in just a few days. I actually got my kits from M&P via Ebay. The technique for bleeding will be very helpful too. Thanks again and have a great new year!

[@Moonfleet41]

Most welcome my friend, good luck with your project and have a Happy New Year!

[@martinloftus164]

Cheers for that I was having a bit of a panic about this job ! And there is no need ! Great videos

[@Moonfleet41]

Thanks Martin, glad it helps you, let me know if you run in to any problems, happy to help! Del

[@Moonfleet41]

Thanks mate, i appreciate you watching. Del.

[@Villachai]

Another great tutorial. I think you have explained my brake problem I asked on your other video what could cause a binding or intermittent biting motion in my brakes cause a non smooth brake with my front calipers. Time to rebuild my calipers.

[@Moonfleet41]

Maybe not mate..i just replied to that, try cleaning the bobbins first and chuck in some new pads...then is that doesnt do it, you can rebuild the calipers.... Good luck with it.. Del.

[@Moonfleet41]

Cheers mate... glad the videos help, that's why we post them up... ride safe, Del

[@Blahde]

I changed my Pads just on Saturday and if I'm honest, one of the pistons was a bit more.... reluctant compared to the others;-) I cleaned em but I wasn't 100% happy. Maybe 95% ;-) So, you've inspired me to do it properly. Off down the shops to get some new seals. Top vids Del, really!!!

[@randolph50]

Dude! You are awesome. Too damn bad I didn't watch this 2 days ago. I am rebuilding the forks and front brakes on a 82 Honda VF750S and it was time to take the calipers apart. 2 of the 4 pistons in the 2 calipers were stuck and I had a hell of a time getting them out. I finally put them back on the bike and c-clamped the 2 free piston and forced the other 2 out like you did. UNFORTUNATELY, I stupidly tried to pull on them with pliers first, without knowing the old inner tube trick. Yes. I left bite marks and now need to buy 2 new pistons. Having all tubeless tires, I don't have any old inner tubes lying around but I will visit the tire shop and see if they have any. It seems like an indispensable asset to have handy.

[@Moonfleet41]

Bad luck mate, isn't it always thew way, we learn things just after we need them most... never mind... the best place to source them is a cycle shop, just buy a bicycle tube, they are cheap and easy to buy, and you'll get years of use from it... thanks for your kind words buddy, you are very kind.. take care and ride safe.. Del.

[@Moonfleet41]

Plumbing...no worries.... Realtionships...? You're gonna have to ask Penny Pitstop for that, but we've made 26 years so far, so no bad i guess...! thanks for watching mate, and im glad you are taking up the spanners... nowt like doing it yourself.. Good luck, Del.

[@Moonfleet41]

Thanks Greg, you are very kind, im glad it could be of help.. Del.

[@rossamoo]

Another great vid Del :)

[@Moonfleet41]

Thanks for your kind comments, mate, good luck with your project, good to know we could help!

[@fader1109]

good vid a little tip from race where every little helps leave the res seal so air can escape use a pulltie pull the brake in tight and let sit for a few hours then put the resviour seal and cap on it gets ride of all the air then cut of the pulltie

[@01clive1]

Hi Del thanks for mentioning about the callipers to not place them in a vice as iv seen done on some vids im glad i searched and found yours cheers mate

[@Moonfleet41]

You're most welcome mate, thanks for watching.. Del.

[@Moonfleet41]

Hi mate,yes you can split the caliper to get the pads out,it works just fine..clean & copper slip them afterwards so you don't have to split the caliper every time you replace the pads...most seal kits come without joint seals and yes, you can re-use them if they are ok and no, no sealant, just fit them dry...good luck with it, take care, Del

[@willswheels283]

Thanks matey, very useful info, got a slightly sticking caliper on my Honda NTV so this will come in handy.👍😎

[@Moonfleet41]

Most welcome mate, glad it helped !

[@ross5490]

Top video cant wait to do mine now thanks!

[@slimeroad]

Hi Del and Penny, Your videos are really clear and well edited. Thanks very much for doing this. I particularly like the little details that an amateur generally wouldn't know about; for example the bungy strap to hold up the banjo. I would have ended up with a rag underneath to catch the excess and therefore have used more fresh fluid than necessary.

[@Moonfleet41]

Thanks mate, just a little common sense I suppose, and it keeps the working time down on any given job!

[@Moonfleet41]

Thanks mate, appreciate you watching and taking the time to comment...ride safe, Del.

[@Moonfleet41]

Excellent work, Tim, impressed that you've invested in some proper tooling, take your time and enjoy the job, it's another facet to your biking hobby and should be enjoyed in it's own right - let me know how you get on, Del

[@ashten92]

great video,great tips,thank you.cheers.

[@Moonfleet41]

Thanks chap, make sure yo get some new fluid too, and lots of clean rags too...go get stuck in mate, let me know how you get on... cheers, Del.

great video!

[@Moonfleet41]

Hi mate, seals just came from a random bike supplier on E-Bay, search them by bike and should be few to choose from - good luck with the job, take your time and you'll get it sussed, Del

[@Moonfleet41]

Why thank you most kindly sir, its a pleasure to help, and i really appreciate the support... take care, and ride safe, Del.

[@Moonfleet41]

Hi CJ.. thanks for the approval mate, most people find anything related to brakes a scary subject, just wanted to dispel some of the myths... thanks for watching, Del.

[@Moonfleet41]

Thats great news mate, and exactly the reason i post them up, so guys can take care of thier bikes and save a few pennies too, take your time and double check everything, and let me know if you get stuck and need any help... go get it buddy... cheers, Del.

[@Moonfleet41]

Good luck with it, hope it works out ok... Del.

[@Moonfleet41]

Thanks matey....

[@HaveBikeWillVlog]

Cheers mate. I've got everything I need so I'm going to give it ago. I've had a feel of the pressure seals and it seems obvious enough so getting them in the right way round shouldn't be an issue. Where I've had the calliper off the bike already and tried decacking it its pretty obviously going to be in need of some TLC below the seals so tooth brush, rag, elbow grease!
