Finally got the 916 finished & back together, paint work looks great, DB Killers fitted after arriving in excellent time from Germany, all ready for the MOT tomorrow at 1230hrs, Thought I just check over lights etc, and guess what no back brake, seemed ok when I bled them!?! It seems that having stood all those years with the same brake fluid in has knackered the seals, so MOT canceled and back in bits

Anyone know if they are rebuildable, because Ducati don’t sell the seals anymore?

Just buy new caliper and master cylinder, no messing about, just do it and get it back together and on the road.

Don' think that you can buy seals for Brembo brakes

there was a recent thread about rear brakes, think that they bought from Harris Performance.
