Oh dear, major surgery. someone call ER
 
It's the caliper. The fork bottom is fine so far, the bolt started it's own thread and has gone about 5/8mm into the alloy in the wrong seating. Never heard of heli coil ? :rodent: Been a good boy with my threads until now. I was going to buy a new caliper then remebered how much P4'S COST :o second hand too:puzzled: anyone got a RSV,996,999 pair they've upgraded from ? :burn:

Dear Mr. Banana,

One pair original Brembo 4 piston, 2 pad calipers for sale - I've upgraded on my 998.

Were going on Ebay, with lines/banjos etc.

About 3,000 miles use - Jersey and France, so no road salt - hence totally excellent condition.

I figured £100 the lot was reasonable. Let me know if interested.

Phone if you like:

H: 01534 745873
W: 01534 702427
Mob: 077977 43811

If not, good luck.

Spinoli
