Cheap Brake Seal Sets - Derpdiherp - 13-05-15
Do you guys reckon anything untoward would come of using these really cheap seal sets?

I need to service the brakes, noticed one front pad has worn much faster than the rest, and the back brake is definitely binding a bit.

I for one would never skimp on anything to do with brakes or tyres.

But some will and do, each to their own, better having information so each person can make up their own mind of what they'd like to do

Concerning the Tourmax kit I mentioned in the linked thread:
my authorized Honda dealer (I own a NTV650 alongside) sells such parts as an alternative to the more expensive OEM stuff.
So I think that the quality might not be too bad.

I bought these in 2013.
Perfect fit, no problems after 2 years.

That's a good price, I'll go for those. Fingers crossed the front seals are okay and the pistons just need a deep clean.
