Fellow Forum members, I have a pair of Brembo calipers from my 888 which are in a pretty terrible state and need refurbishing, i cant recall the name of company that refurbs them, so if anyone can recommend said company that would be great. On another note if anyone has a set that are new/hardly used set that are going spare happy to look into buying. Finally, if anyone is aware of company selling new ones at a reasonable price thats also a possibility, There was a company in Italy a few years ago selling for a reasonable price, but cant seem to remember what they called. They are nothing special on the 888 and mass produced.
If they are the P4 34 40 with 40mm mounting there’s plenty new on eBay - inc this https://rover.ebay.com/rover/0/0/0?mpre=https://www.ebay.co.uk/ulk/itm/253989341389 Powerhouse do the rebuild kits if you want to rebuild
https://www.powerhouse.uk/content/motorcycle-brakes/motorcycle-brake-caliper-services.php from basic re-seal to total refurbishment for Brembo +, I only wish they did car calipers.
I used BCS Automotive in Nottingham to refurbish a pair of Brembo M4 calipers. They didn’t have replacement pistons in stock and it took Brembo 3 months to send them from Italy. Not BCS’s fault but I got the impression that they don’t keep a lot of motorcycle caliper parts in stock. I was also disappointed that cosmetic refurbishment was not included in the price of functional refurbishment which was not cheap in the first place. Andy
The pistons are fine. They have been overhauled. The general look of the callipers is pretty shoddy. There is a deep scratch on one of them. Will post a pic.
wow! they are in much better nick than I thought they'd be - if you can't live with the marking, particularly on the highlighted "brembo" script then replating probably won't be enough/replacement would be the only answer and you would have to check images carefully before purchase. I think this is a P4 30/34 with 40 mm pitch fixing, and is very common across Ducati bikes of around that year.
Thanks Final. 110 Euro each. That’s a great price. Will mail them to check exactly. Anyone know what size the rear on my bike would be? https://www.carpimoto.it/en-GB/Search.aspx?searchText=P4+30/34&timeStampActualSearch=1542711744698
