    Source for Brake Piston Seal

    Hi guys and gals.

    I'm rebuilding my front brake calliper on my GS425. I need a replacement ring/seal that goes around the outside of the piston sealing the piston into the caliper.

    Anybody have a good online source for one of these?

    PartShark.com is probably the cheapest I've found. Good luck.

      Pretty much all the usual suspects are gonna have it. Bike Bandit, Babbits, maybe even Z1. If the piston is pitted, replace it while you've got them apart.

        What they're saying is that you should order the rebuild kit from your favorite source for OEM Suzuki parts.

        The OEM kit will include all the seals and will be far better quality than the aftermarket K&L krap, and it will include a new piston.

            Thanks for the responses everyone. The OEM stuff looks much better than the aftermarket kits available.

            Thanks again
