Yep, they're in my freshly re-built front calipers on the 24. They sent me two sets by mistake so I have a spare set to re-build the other calipers once I've got new pistons :mrgreen:

Anyhoo, done about 600km and the brakes are pretty darned good for sliding caliper jobs :peace: Got a trip to Tamworth tomorrow so I'll let you know if I make it back with the brakes in one piece :lol:

A little off topic but their caliper pistons were absolutely shite which i bought for my CBR400! Not only was the finish rough including burrs on something so critical, but they were 0.4mm too big to actually fit into the calipers :twisted: Im not going back to them again. I stick to original now for things like seals etc. Maybe my first and only time with them i was unlucky :(

Just paid £2.95 per pot for my NC23RRK caliper seals, dust & main? Working fine on one side, also got a pair of stainless pistons to rebuild the other caliper with... will get pics up soon. ;)

Quality wise I would stay with OE seals. You know the are good and fit perfect. But moneywise not cheap.
