Hi guys,

Has anyone encountered this problem before?

While bleeding the rear brake on my 07 RSVR I noticed that the pin holding the pads was missing as well as the circlip and brake pad holding spring.

I have tried to order all these bits but have been told that the spring is not available as an individual item.

I have searched the net to see if I could find a similar one for ducati brembo calipers, but no luck there either.

Surely Aprilia/Brembo don't expect you to buy a whole caliper assembly to replace that little spring!

Any ideas greatly welcome!
 
My rear caliper piston cracked a while ago and I couldn't find a replacement piston anywhere. Luckily I was bailed out by a forum member who had a caliper laying around!

The parts support for these bikes is variable, it ranges from poor to damn right rip off!!
