Title: NEED Rear Brake Pistons
Post by: Dayao12 on March 13, 2012, 06:42:55 AM
Hiya!
I hope I"m posting this in the right place...kinda still a newb on this site.

For the longest time I've been hearing a light scraping noise coming from my rear brakes...I just figured I needed new brake pads...
It turns out I did...but also apparently the pads were worn down so much they disintegrated and I've been using one of the pistons as a pseudo-brake pad.  :dunno_black: It practically grinded the piston in half.
I tried ordering it from my shop by the Suzuki supplier for the piston kit was taking waay too long...it's been 2 months already. So I cancelled the order and thought I'd try to get one from here.

So does anyone have a rear brake piston I can get off ya?
It's for a 2008 GS500F

Thanks a ton!

Cheers,

JD

Adidasguy should have what you need. Send him a PM. http://gstwins.com/gsboard/index.php?action=profile;u=11426

If he doesn't have anything for you, the good news is you can usually get an entire caliper assembly for about $15 USD on eBay.

For future reference, if you want/need to buy or sell something, use the "For Sale/Wanted" section. :) You'll get better results.
