XT600 Calipers

Hi

I'm in the market for both brake calipers for my 1991 Xt600 - if anyone's looking to shift them on let me know. The front (twin-pot) is more important - the rear I may be able to salvage although I'll need the pivot piece that holds the bracket to the caliper (no part number on the parts fiche but the boot that goes on it is 5R2-25937-00-00).

So, Front caliper assembly in any working or workable condition (happy to recondition as long as the pad pins come out OK) - any offers? I'm in Australia but happy to pay postage.

Jim

Front is good mate - if you have pics that'd be great. As long as the pad pins come out ok, I'm flexible on condition...

Membership - help keep us going!

Horizons Unlimited is not a big multi-national company, just two people who love motorcycle travel and have grown what started as a hobby in 1997 into a full time job (usually 8-10 hours per day and 7 days a week) and a labour of love. To keep it going and a roof over our heads, we run events all over the world with the help of volunteers; we sell inspirational and informative DVDs; we have a few selected advertisers; and we make a small amount from memberships.
