I recently noticed while cleaning that I had snapped the bracket that holds the right front brake caliper to the fork. No idea how this happened but need to get fixed asap. Does anyone have a parts supplier I can get one of these from. Or does anyone know of a generic one that will fit maybe honda or suzuki. Model is a TBS '98 thanks in advance.

I am selling my front brakes, but I am selling the complete assembly as a whole. Master cylinder, stainless steel braided lines, and complete caliper assemblies. I was getting ready to put this on Ebay tonight along with the forks and front wheel (all separate auctions). If you want it before I put it on contact me as soon as you can. The other parts will follow soon as I get them cleaned up and ready to list. For the record I am not actually parting the bike out, just getting rid of what I am not going to use. I am basically keeping the engine, main part of the frame, wiring harness and maybe the rear suspension. Everything else is going to be adapted from another bike or fabricated by hand.

Sorry about that Meanchuck, my mistake on the "parting out".

No offence taken, just didn't want anybody thinking that I was ending the existence of such an awesome bike. They form lynch mobs here for that sort of thing!

Thanks anyway, I figured out that I could use the same brakes as an old cbr600 as they are standard nissin calipers so I got the part from a breakers.
