Title: Rear caliper service kit
Post by: Tonka. on 05 November 2009, 15:32:01

Does anybody know who can supply a rear caliper service kit for my Mig (2000 V6). Or does anybody have a kit they could sell me.

Have called the local factors and apparently the kits are no longer made for the Omega  >:(

But calipers are always available  ::) ;D

Thanks in advance

If it helps Vx Exchange calipers are £57.02 + VAT. Choice of two depending on the chassis number.

Vx also do a seal kit @ £18.83 + VAT

Cheers

Look across the Vx range, you'll be surprised how many parts are common.

An unrelated example for you.....

The rear caliper/piston/seal on my Kawasaki Z1 is no longer around, not even as a recon.
However, the piston (and seal) from a Z650 are exactly the same component (and they are still available)....all I had to do was clean up the caliper body.

Thanks KW, that is a good idea. I will let you know what I find. Unless someone knows already. ;) :y

I didn't think repair kits were made any more. I thought the calipers were either throw away or exchange.
