Rear Brakes
« on: 22 November 2008, 16:02:30 »

Anyone know if the rear brake pad pins & clips are available anywhere other than VX, local dealer has just quoted me £33 per set.
Local motor factor had some listed but they turned out to be too short.

I got a new set from motoquip, decent quality and after 2 years still arent rusty. they were taken over up here but I think the new place still uses the same suppliers. certainly werent as expensive as that price you quoted.

There is a big difference between penny pinching & being ripped off.
That price is more than double what I paid for the VX pads from the same dealer.
