Hi gurus.

Does anybody know what are partnumbers for front brake calipers of 885i '99 or which other bikes they fit? I know that these Nissin calipers are common, had the same or very similar on Transalp.

Want to order repair kit somewhere else then Triumph site, too expensive for me

Thanks in advance.

A very long list of Triumphs use that exact caliper. Please keep in mind there are lefts and rights.

Visit this link to see long list: http://www.bikebandit.com/oem-parts/detail/triumph/t2020542/b1796818 (http://www.bikebandit.com/oem-parts/detail/triumph/t2020542/b1796818)

Have you seen these people's kits, £40 for both sides seems reasonable, think BB has used them

Yes, everything you need in one bag, and everything fits.

BTW... I wasn't suggesting to buy calipers from BikeBandit.com (http://bikebandit.com). I would buy a set of used ones off eBay and rebuild them with a kit like TimBox2 posted.

thank you guys

already found this store on English ebay. Asked them about caliper pistons, they have them for 20 pounds per one. So if I want to completely rebuild my calipers it will be 120 pounds for a front and 60 more if I want to rebuild also rear one. This is really and very expensive. I completely rebuilt all 4 calipers on my Subaru for 100 USD and I can place a bet that repair kit for the same caliper but marked as Honda for example will be twice cheaper.

Btw, I'm going to install armed brake tubes (not sure how they named in English properly) so I'll remove calipers anyway then I will try to find some Nissin marks on them. If I find anything useful will post it here:)
