I have an early 1992 trident which has the nissin twin pot callipers. The problem is a previous owner has used copper grease on the caliper slides and as a result the dust seals(or boots) on the slides have fallen to bits and gone. i keep them as greased as i can, but the dirt gets in and i have to sort them out far to often. My main dealer says the only way to get new seals for the caliper is to but a new caliper. These cost £250 each and i need three. A breakers can do me three calpiers at £80 each, but i would like to know if anyone can suggest anywhere where i might be able to get these annoying seals. They cant be more than pence each, and someone must sell them.

Has anyone had the same problem?

I am also told that the same brakes was fitted to early Honda CBRs and that handa will sell you anything you want.

Please help if you can cos its really starting to bug me and its annoying that i cant buy these annoying seals

Thanks in advance

Daz
