Easier and cheaper to buy a used caliper with low miles from ebay.

SV650 right front caliper works as well.

If you really don't want to go that route, you can buy new seals, or new pistons with seals, and the rubber boots individually from any online dealer.  Just navigate to the parts on the OEM parts microfiche.
