Anyone know where I can get new front brake calipers. Mine were fully rebuilt last year with new seals and pistons and every piston is now leaking on both sides. Have decided to get whole new calipers. No one seems to have them in NZ. Anyone got any ideas.

Have you tried BNT? I'm pretty sure from memory that's where I got mine from...
Cheers,

Sorry - this is where I got mine from ^^ - they are great to deal with, and super quick. Its actually cheaper if you order off there website direct rather than going through TM too.

What sort of quality are they. Also I,m trying to work out which ones I need. My cruiser is a 1990 HDJ81 but it has 311mm rotors. The calipers on their web site are not for pre 92 but it says they are for 311mm rotors. Would I be right in assuming my brakes have been changed.

Those are 4 pot calipers, bit of an upgrade from OEM.

Mine are also 4 piston calipers. I have ordered some today from Aus. The same as I have for $375 for the pair
so all is good.
