EDIT

ops bike is an `01, if that makes a difference.

Hi all, after a few months of inactivity, I went to check on my `01 curvy sv 650s the other day in the garage and the front brake is pretty much siezed on, so it looks like a caliper overhaul is necessary.

The bike hasnt been used since mid october, and the brakes were fine when it was put away.

Anyway, where do you lot get your seals from? Im assuming the seals must be shared with tons of other bikes using those same 2 pot calipers, so I shouldnt need to be ripped off by the local stealers surely?

Thanks, Lee
