Rear brake
#1
Hi all, cleaning out my rear brake and came across these, first time cleaning it but I had a thou caliper on my 6 and don't recall seeing them. Anyone know what they are and their purpose? Cheers Smile

Not like anything I've seen in a Thou rear caliper.

My guess is someone previously bodged the anti-rattle clip.

Had a look on the parts catalog earlier, came up as a Retainer, Caliper #5LV-25849-00. Strange. Looks like it could possibly be to support the wee plate on the bottom somehow?

Me too. They are a standard Yamaha Part as stated and should be present on all standard Gen 1 rear callipers. They act as some sort of retainer.

You're right, of course - my bad.  Never noticed them on mine but went and checked this morning.  The clip to the sides of the caliper and I guess I've never had reason to take them off mine when cleaning it. Smile
