  • 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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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!

I got shafted last time wen I ordered one in thru my dealer coupla years back-$50 mistake! Anyway need a newy n ain't payin that again!

Had a look on ebay but not much doin for the oddball rear pin off these bikes. Anyone know where to get one at a reasonable price-halls/bills? Anythin interchangeable? Early ktm?

How hard would it be to make the expandable collar thing I wonder?
 
I think I bought a caliper rebuild kit that had it included. All balls - I think
 
Was not All Balls. There should be a Brembo number on the caliper casting. Just search for a rebuild kit using that number.
 
Are you talking about the pins for the pads? If so, just get the EBC MXS kit. It has new pins. I think the part # is mxs181, but can confirm. :cheers:
 
I've got a coupla sets of pads already but price dependent mite be easy to get the EBC. I'll check em out but if u got part number that'd b good Steve. Wonder if u could use sum hard rubber/plastic interference fit instead of the metal collar? The R clip would still retain the pin.
 
Sorry, went to bed. I keep a spare mxs kit on hand for the spares and use the rear pads. Great stuff and fair price.
What metal collar are you talking about?
 
Shawbagga, I read on DBW that a certain model Honda calliper pin fits the brembo and are supposed to be harder wearing.
I can't remember if it was the pad pin or calliper slide pin. I'm sure that Nutty would remember.
 
Think that was slide pins Oldscool.

The expander/springy collar thing that makes it a tight fit Steve. Only on older style big rear brembos that 300 has
 
I made some pins myself out of M6x100mm A2-70 stainless bolts:

You just need a 2mm drill bit:

And no lathe (if you have one it would be easier:

They seem to hold up pretty good and are cheep to make if you have some time ;D
 
Yeh was gonna do the same Hurky but front is not the issue it's the rear with the expandable collar thingy
 
In the rear I simply drilled the caliper to 6mm so that the pin can pass through as in the front ... In fact the pin of the pictures was for the rear :thumbsup:
 
Post up a pic of the caliper with pin in ready to ride hurky. Intriguing.

Pin doesn't rattle or move around? Did u drill a recess for pin head section so it's flush inside caliper?
 
Hey hurky(or anyone else) can u tell me wat the overall length of the rear pin is that u made along with hole centres/distance from pin head to first hole please?
R the front n rear pins the same length n hole centres?
I'm away at work n left my pin in me car n planning on making a few at work in spare time!
