wanted: front brake caliper


Anonymous 05-13-2008, 6:20 PM
for 79 cx500... rebuilding bike but the piston is corroded and stuck to the caliper. after pulling, twisting, banging, can of penetrant, torch, it still wont budge any. If you have a front brake caliper post what you want for it, I'm watching a couple on ebay right now goin for 25-50$. One of them is even chrome oooo

I believe the '78 thru '81 CX are the same single piston caliper, but the bracketing may change over the years

sorry I need the MC. I don't have anything in my hands yet. just mailed some $$ to a guy in Tacoma, Washington.

He was selling the whole front brake system. will see what he sends me. I may have just the hose and caliper for ya.
