Brake Pad Pin Interchangeable with other models??
Can the NC30 brake pad pin in the front calipers be swapped out for a pin from another model.
Reason i ask is i rang the honda dealership and asked for a nc30 pin on monday, they didnt have them in stock so said they'd get me one, rung yest and they had forgotten to get it but said they would be ok to order it and it would be here for today, well guess what, its fecking not!!
The pin on my bike is ok but the head is a bit sloppy on it, i'll be ok getting it in and safe, but im a bit worried i'll muller it trying to get it out!! not good.
So if i know which models if any it is interchangeable with i can try themand see if they have them on the shelf.
Thanks

Bros and RS250 (not later models though) use the same Nissin calipers 

Conventional wisdom says to know your limits. To know your limits you need to find them first. Finding your limits generally involves getting in over your head and hoping you live long enough to benefit from the experience. That's the fun part.
