1989 Honda CRM 250 Front Brake Caliper seals

Brought one of these beasties yesterday and need to buy a seal kit for the front brake caliper.

David Silver, wemoto and ebay have nothing and they're my usual hunting grounds for spares so I'm out of ideas!

Anyone know where to get new seals?

I had one a while back , I never did the seals but most of the running gear was the same as the XRs. Even the supermoto wheels off my XR600 were a straight swop (that was good fun). So I just ordered stuff for XRs of same year. Sorry I cant be more specific.

There is a UK company/shop that specialises in CRMs. Look in a copy of Trail Bike magazine or try googling.

2000 XRV750 (NO 3), I think I'm getting the hang of them now, must fit the centrestand before the back tyre wears out. Damn, the driveshaft bearing wore out first!

Leisure Trail UK. Nottingham . tel. 0115 973 2466

I have a workshop manual ( photo copied sheets) that came from these guys, maybe they still do them. If not, I could probably get one of my kids to scan it and email it.
