OK it seems there are hundreds of kits at all prices for the front calipers... ant suggestions?
On my other bikes. I just pushed in the pistons and replaced the pads, one bike I had to rebuild all the calipers but they were all the same and reasonably priced from Yamaha.
I have ordered the rear caliper (which needs it) and its on the way. but the fronts may only need caliper seals... any thoughts
both front caliper rebuild

Re: both front caliper rebuild
I'd just do the dust and oil seals, not much can go wrong with the calipers.
