• Hi everyone,

    As you all know, Coffee (Dean) passed away a couple of years ago. I am Dean's ex-wife's husband and happen to have spent my career in tech. Over the years, I occasionally helped Dean with various tech issues.

    When he passed, I worked with his kids to gather the necessary credentials to keep this site running. Since then (and for however long they worked with Coffee), Woodschick and Dirtdame have been maintaining the site and covering the costs. Without their hard work and financial support, CafeHusky would have been lost.

    Over the past couple of weeks, I’ve been working to migrate the site to a free cloud compute instance so that Woodschick and Dirtdame no longer have to fund it. At the same time, I’ve updated the site to a current version of XenForo (the discussion software it runs on). The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.

    Unfortunately, the new software version doesn’t support importing the old site’s styles, so for now, you’ll see the XenForo default style. This may change over time.

    Coffee didn’t document the work he did on the site, so I’ve been digging through the old setup to understand how everything was running. There may still be things I’ve missed. One known issue is that email functionality is not yet working on the new site, but I hope to resolve this over time.

    Thanks for your patience and support!

SM 610 front brake kit

I've just had a look on the parts fiche for a 2006 610 and nothing there at all in regards to a rebuild kit. I have also google'ed "brembo four pot supermoto caliper" and not getting far at all. But that is all it is, they aren't different for different bikes, not specific to Husqvarna. Is there a part number on the caliper you could use? Or contact Brembo and ask them where to obtain a rebuild kit from.
 
I've read, more than once on the Internet, that since some years ago Brembo doesn't sell rebuild kits anymore, neither for calipers, nor for master cylinders.
 
That's ridiculous! How do they expect people to over hall their products then? I would expect a lot more from such a big name. If my brakes need doing this will cause a serious problem. The only option would be to find a second hand one in better condition, which is, quite frankly, ludicrous.
 
You can take it apart measure the pistons and o-rings and at least get new o-rings to stop any leaks. There are a lot of companies that sell o-rings for calipers.
 
Here in Italy some SM riders say that they've brought the caliper/master cylinder to an authorized dealer and then the dealer sent it to Brembo, who serviced the part.
A friend of mine turned to a professional who deals with brake servicing. This professional found suitsble seals and rebuilt his master cylinder. So, you could try and do what rancher1's suggested.
 
When i had my Aprilia RSV and was on the RSV forum we found out about this issue, the ape had the same calipers. That was 6 years ago
 
Thanks for the replies and confirms pretty much what I feared - for some obscure reason Brembo do not sell the front pistons and seals.

Seals might be still OK, but if a piston breaks it seems you would be pretty screwed.

Also not sure what model Brembo this is, but I will mail them - maybe they know. Thank goodness I decided to check before dismantling.
 
Well at least I think I found the product code -http://moto.brembo.com/en/detail/XA32950/husqvarna/sm/610/2006/calipers/front
