Brake caliper parts
Brakes are dragging after I engage the brakes. Where is this best place to get a rebuild kit for the front and rear brake calipers.. pretty sure pistons are ok. Should just need the seals. Maybe I just need to disassemble and clean but it would be nice to have the parts on hand. Thanks

Re: Brake caliper parts
looks like they just seal the piston assy ? not sure I would need the piston as I am quite sure its all right ,probably just the seals or rings. bike has just been sitting and the caliper won't quite retract right, maybe just a good cleaning ? Thx

Re: Brake caliper parts
It usually doesn't require new seals. The brake fluid will "crystalize" over time in the groove behind the seal. Pick the seals out, and using a dental pick, clean the grooe out real well. Also, clean the dried on crap off of the seals by using your fingernail. Lightly grease up the seals and reassemble the caliper.
tuned to Paris Hilton specs............rich and retarded!
Re: Brake caliper parts
RZ pistons are stainless steel , they should be ok .
Re: Brake caliper parts
The corrosion will push 'dents' into the rubber seal and they stay there once the seal is old. Seals are cheap, just replace them.gpaddict wrote: ↑Mon Nov 26, 2018 10:26 am It usually doesn't require new seals. The brake fluid will "crystalize" over time in the groove behind the seal.

Re: Brake caliper parts
Is there a part number for the rubber seal between the two halves?
Re: Brake caliper parts

Re: Brake caliper parts
You can get just seal kits from yambits and a few other places in the UK. Check ebay.co.uk under rd350 ypvs
The piston can be cleaned up with #0000 steel wool. Spend a lot of time cleaning out all the crud that's in the seal grooves of the calipers. After all, it is your life saving pieces that you're holding in your hands.
Re: Brake caliper parts
looks like brakemasters on eBay us sells them. $20.

Re: Brake caliper parts
We have an aftermarket kit for just the seals, Yamaha only sells the fronts with the piston for some reason

Re: Brake caliper parts
Am I seeing that the xs400 caliper is the same as the rz350?
