Please help to identify this - SOLVED! Thanks!!
Okay so totally I'm stuck. This is the last thing in the way of getting by bike on the road. PLEASE PLEASE help me identify the brake caliper in question so I can get some brake pads for it:
90% sure its Yamaha 90% sure its mid-80s to early 90s (could be late-90s I guess?!) 70% sure its from a bigger bike (350+), the forks were mounted on my '83 TT600 when I got it 70% sure that the caliper belongs to the forks Makings on the Caliper- 94, L (I assume for left), KA3, 27 Makings on the Caliper slider- MG3 Markings on the Old pads- TT 2202 FF Forks are 43mm I had thought it was from a ~93 XT600 but the pads for that have an extra hook on one side. PLEASE HELP & I will be forever grateful :helpsmilie: Note: 2 hex bolts at the top are not stock, you can see the original hardware further down http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-xPyFXqWzjz...0/DSC_0148.JPG http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-NLXOFpToxs...0/DSC_0145.JPG http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-ngmZQZnGXg...0/DSC_0146.JPG http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-B5XSYrevd2...0/DSC_0147.JPG http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-78X8G-XN7F...0/DSC_0134.JPG http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-TwU-m1V7NR...0/DSC_0135.JPG http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-R9_qqXv8pm...0/DSC_0136.JPG http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-a6JVWfNt-I...0/DSC_0137.JPG http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-Pswba_mowY...0/DSC_0138.JPG The Master Cyl may or may not be matched to the caliper :doh: http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-S8ntHy4nd_...0/DSC_0139.JPG http://4.bp.blogspot.com/--_cRmt7skb...0/DSC_0140.JPG http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-GVhj9L-euO...0/DSC_0143.JPG http://1.bp.blogspot.com/--BUxfF6Z9o...0/DSC_0144.JPG |
I would just take the pads to a decent sized bike shop and see if they can match them?
Worst comes to worst, you can try and match them up from a catalogue using calipers to measure distances. Calipers can be really hard to match with very small differences between models. |
Looks like Honda.
If fork tubes are 43mm is an old Africa Twin RD03 (only one disk) and the EBC code is FA124/2 Sizes: 87.9 x 41.1 x 9.8mm If tubes are 41mm is the olds NX650 Dominator front end The only other pads I remember with the same shape but different sizes is from the RD04 Africa Twin also 43mm but 2 disks. EBC pads FA121 119.8 x 52 x 8mm As far I could see these pads didn’t come in any Yamaha,master cylinder pump look like maybe the original from Yamaha Regards |
Turns out its 84-85 CR500...damn I love the internet
Thanks for pushing me in the right direction! |
