Title: WTB: Front brake system
Post by: bombsquad83 on November 09, 2012, 04:49:24 PM
I would like to get a full front brake system including rotor off of a newer GS.  My pads are halfway done, and my brake system is showing it's age.  I'm planning on replacing the caliper, pads, rotor, and brake line (either new OEM or stainless replacement).   If you can help me out let me know.

I get stuff from Pinwall on ebay. They usually give the mileage and always have pictures so you can see if the pads are nearly new. $15-$25 is decent.

Seems they don't have any decent rotors right now. Others have them.

I have to inventory my parts to see if I have any extras.

I prefer to do business in the open.  I already have a SV650 caliper with good pad life on the way.  I would still buy a rotor that is in good shape and an unused stainless steel brake line for the right price.  PM will be sent.
