HCP9813SET2 Aftermarket brake caliper retainer plate pin rubber DUST BOOTS, used on either side of the joining pin that retains the caliper body to the retainer plate. This specially formed accordian bellows boot is usually disintegrated on original calipers, and interferes or prevents the caliper from "floating" properly against the retainer plate. Use 2 per caliper on all XJ550, XJ750 Seca, and XJ1100 (front calipers only) models. Set of two boots does one caliper:
$ 14.95

Contact Len at Xj4ever.com as this is an older post that I am quoting from but he is the guy I had make the stainless lines for these bikes and he has a great selection of parts. Worth an email to him to see I am sure.
78E, 79SF currently running and road ready.
1 more in the wings patiently waiting with a big bore kit already installed.

Jeff,

I've bought Caliper Kits from "George Fix" a couple of times and the kit only included the Piston rubbers and seal not the two boots that Steve is chasing.

So Steve, you'd better check with George first what is actually in his LH Kit. Specifically your Rubber Boots 4L0-25917-00-00.

This seller says he can supply caliper kits for the" FRONT "of an XS1100LH...(according to the parts Finder should be the same as your RH )....but not for the rear and will deduct that from the cost.

I think I have searched the known universe trying to locate these. A couple of places said they stock them but when asked they in fact didn't?

The part number is...4L0-25917-00-00.... other calipers have part numbers starting with....4X8...1UY....or 3JD...not sure if they fit or can be made to fit.

I don't think brake will work without them....

any ideas to overcome not having them or any supplier contacts would be very much appreciated.

Thanks, Steve

I have sent the above to the US and UK forums if thats any use to Aussies members
