  • XJ Rear Brake Pistons

    Since the rear brake pistons on the XJ are an oddball and unobtainium.. this guy makes stainless pistons pretty reasonably. A definate upgrade to a rusty pitted one.

    HVC Cycle retails some of my parts and I've found them to be good people to deal with. Since they specialize in 2 stroke bikes, odds are this same piston is used on one of the RD series Yamahas...

    The old gray biker ain't what he used to be.

      I concur

      I boought a replacement piston for SWMBO's rear caliper, and it fit perfectly, works perfectly, and actually is as good, or better quality that OEM. I think the one I bought is stainless.

      Their magnet is on my fridge in the garage, so they are just a call away.
