Brake overhaul parts - where from?
Hi Guys and Gals,
Currently got the callipers off of my 06 pointy, ready for a damn good service. Where's the best place you could suggest to pick up replacement rubber seals for the pistons (if needed), and the washers that seal against the banjo joint on each calliper? Love you all!

Suzuki dealers sell Suzuki parts.

Re: Brake overhaul parts
Local Suzi dealer or Robinsons Foundry for OEM. Wemoto for pattern seals. I've used both before with no mishaps (although I prefer to use OEM).
Take the calipers apart first though and check what you need, they might well be OK. Get the copper washers from any motor factors or from ebay. I usually get 20 at a time so I've always got them in. You can re-anneal them by heating them with a blow torch until they glow red but, TBH, they're pennies so I always just use new. |

Re: Brake overhaul parts - where from?
Used wemoto seals in my front and they're fine and I've done 12k with the seals.
As Tam for the copper washers
