Ill possibly need one if i cant get mine apart tomorrow, i know i can look on ebay but thought id post here to.
I cant believe this bike!!!!! every bolt is stuck solid, wrecked the front caliper trying to get it off. I cant even split the rear caliper in half, bolts wont budge.
check out my thread on a rear calipar m8 http://forums.sv650.org/showthread.php?t=145226 I have half a calipar you can have, just not a whole one ;-)

We are having a right old time with our bikes!!! lol
Bolts wont undo at all, its submerged in pentrating oil in garage as we speak, ive already heated it on my camping cooker lol.
Any one got another half lol.
one tip m8, even if you do nothing else, before you split it reconnect it and push the pistons out as you'll never get em out otherwise

I've got one, got serviced early november ish with plenty copperslip and rubber grease, plenty life in pads.
Bit mucky but works good

Pointy ones are worse for seizing up, and a lot more work to sort when they do.
i got a spare one for you if needed :D
