Front Caliper rebuild kit
« on: March 23, 2010, 10:27:37 AM »
I noticed yesterday that the front caliper on my 400 is dragging. Anyone know where I can get a rebuild kit for it?

Calipers will always have a little drag. Even my 4 pots drag a little.

I would recommend demounting it and cleaning the sliders and relubing and assessing from there. If the seals aren't leaking, they don't need to be rebuilt. It's a sliding 2 piston caliper. If the slide isn't smooth, it'll bind.

Pending that, Bike Bandit will have a rebuild kit or at least buy the o-rings in the fiche.
