Where are the Chinese when you need them
|
They probably are Chinese , Yamaha is £11.64 each caliper £6.32 for pin £3.48 + vat that's £15 quid cheaper than Yamaha
and are you surprised titanium more expensive, it's titanium for focs sake and would the weight saving be worth it ??

But still it's a tiny piece of metal.

£11.76 in total for each caliper, that's £6.32 for 1 pin and £3.48 for the 2Rclips then vat at £1.96 my bad I got the vat wrong, assuming that you want both calipers done as the eBay ones are a pair of pins and Rclips.
eBay ones don't seem so bad now, if you only need one side then it still works out cheaper on flea bay. The scandal out of this is that Yamaha charge £3.48 +vat for two small Rclips :eek https://www.fowlersparts.co.uk/parts/417...ke-caliper

The eBay one is only one pad pin so 2 sets needed (both callipers have wear dents in the pin) but defiantly better value than yam aha.
Thanks for the heads up, you've save me a visit to the dealers
