Front brake caliper

[Micro]

Hi, my 2004 varadero 125 needs a complete front brake caliper. A pin needed removed using a screw extractor which then broke off in the hole. Tried drilling it and even had an engineering firm try to fix it but no joy. Even cobalt bits dont make a dent in it. Anyway, I'm having problems getting a 2nd hand caliper although I can see one's advertised as universal. Any idea if these would work or where I can get a 2nd hand caliper. Thanks in advance for any help.

Will a caliper from another bike fit it if I got a new bracket made up for it . caliper Possibly from another Honda. I know I'd need one of the same size  it is it possible and safe.

If you try fitting a different part and you have an accident your insurance company are not going to be interested .

According to

The older part No was 45250KPC641 and the current part No is 45250KPC661.

I suspect that this part is use on more than one type of Honda.

Use the part No's and keep searching.

Managed to track down another one, was looking £130 got it for £75. Not the best condition but seems to be working ok.

Yeah its always tricky with these older bikes finding the right parts. I probably would've done the same and grabbed that £75 one while you could.
