R1100gs brembo caliper seals only?

Hey all, noticed my brakes are binding, not to bad when riding but try spin the wheel the next day in the garage hardly budges, anyway I got to strip them down the pistons are all good just need seals and dust caps however everywhere I look only sells the seals with pistons, if I have to have the lot then so be it but if someone knew of where I could get just the seals it would save a few penny's.cheers for any advice.

You need new brake hoses if your hoses are still original.

No they have been changed out all goodridge lines front and rear with stainless bleed valves, think it's just salt and water that got into them over winter riding they need a good cleaning.

99.9% of all caliper seals have the same OD/ID/Depth ratio.

If you can measure, your piston diameter, you can buy any generic seals.

I've fitted thousands of these over the years. Everything from 50p - £20 seals. All brands, suppliers etc.

They have all fit. None have leaked.

Spot on lads cheers for the info, I'm going to order a few of them to have in the service kit so I don't have to look next time. Sometimes the Internet has so much information you can't see what your looking for.

If your seals are otherwise still soft and pliant but crusted with that white oxide that won't seem to come off, just mix up some hot water and citric acid in a plastic pot and dunk them in for 10 minutes, they'll come out like new. Same goes for the rubber diaphragm that is under the top for your master cylinder it'll be sparkling new in no time.
