NO CALIPERS AT TRIUMPH BACK ORDER?
That is what my local Triumph dealer told me.
It is hard enough to get Triumph parts.
Hardly any after market parts available.
Does anybody know where I could get the entire caliper and all associated hardware?
If I can't get the part soon I most likely will loose a month of riding time this summer, YUCK!
2006 Triumph America, 141,000 miles so I can't really complain about changing out the caliper.

Lots of them on Ebay that would work until you can get a new one.

I would lay money if you look and compare there is probably a jap bike out there running the same caliper. Have to take yours to the jap dealers and compare or to local repair shops that might know. They are not hard to rebuild if you get a kit from Eddy assuming the piston and bore are OK.

seems like this came up before. If I recall correctly, the calipers are not proprietary to Triumph but are Nissan.
as Ian says, there are probably quite a few bikes out the with the same brakes.
