    I am in dire need of a left front brake caliper for an '80 XS1100G. Can anyone help me out here? Would be greatly appreciated.

      Unless your caliper is damaged or missing, it can be rebuilt. Generally, most can be fixed by a simple disassembly/thorough cleaning, as crud in the piston bore/seal groove is the usual reason for one not working...
