January 15, 201313 yr Hi All, At the weekend i stripped the rear brakes completely down on my 2001/2002 Sherco 125. And sadly managed to snap the retaining circlip in the master cylinder. Does anyone now what size it is off hand? I dont have any spare and im loathed to buy a 300pc pack for £80 from halfords when they are about 50p each. Anyone any ideas?
January 16, 201313 yr Urgh! I measure the open clip at 17.5mm, however one must notice the clip is not standard, in that it has little tangs on the inside to retain the 9.5mm piston. These come in the kit, which were hard to get a while back, which is why I have one stashed. Splatshop shows tho have them, verify part number for the year, but it should be R233. Price had increased as well, but it looks as though it is back to normal at 20 quid. Might inspect your old boot for nick and tears as well, as thic is a common culprit for water entry and crud. I recco packing the boot with silecone grease upon assembly for prevention.
