Looking for a rear caliper for XT600 4PT
 
I'm looking for a rear caliper for an 02 XT600E 4PT.

I believe the DT125R has the same caliper.

If you have one to sell, please message me. Ta

I now only need a slider pin for the rear caliper. The original broke.

The closest I've found is this

https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/NSR250-MC...item3d24e5a407

but the main body of that (the smooth slider part) is 8mm and it looks like the original is more like 10mm.

The slider pin isn't listed as an individual part by Yamaha and I can't pay £400 for a whole new caliper.

Any info or suggestions very welcome.

Thanks

option 1


go with your broken one to a near breaker, these parts are common to all bikes, he should be able to take one off from some stuff he has around


option 2,



like your stand bolt, this is part too is a child play to remake for a good machinist, take the broken one to him for dimensions,



out of curiosity tried ebay and xt600 calipers seem as rare as hen teeth, looks like guys neglect to grease them and end up with rusted pins and pistons

There is no broken one to compare to. It was totally stuck and had to be drilled out.

Working based off the socket is a little harder and I got close but not quite right. Seems the pin on the XT is a bit of an oddball size.

I'll take the best I found to a machinist and try to get a fatter copy made. Never used a machinist but sounds like a good idea, thanks.

Might be a bit trial and error but XT calipers are hard to find. Other parts too. A machinist might be something I'll need more in future.
