HI Klaus.

Do you know why your old caliper seized up? my seizure was caused by the usual, and careless use of what was probably a screw-driver of some sort, sometime in the past, cutting the rubber gaiter, and letting water onto the piston......

I have always been carefull doing that act, always using the pads to safely push pistons home. I was so annoyed at this example of profesional damage that I bought myself a piston wind back tool. I will try to live long enough to enjoy it.

Best of British luck with the Honda Klaus, for my part if Honda made baked beans,and toilet rolls, I would buy them.



Best regards, as ever.
Howard. Isle of Skye.
