2000 m900ie Rear Caliper

jakefh · 05-10-2019, 04:49 PM

Hi.

Can anyone confirm that the rear caliper is this Brembo?
https://www.carpimoto.com/en-GB/5218...liper-P32F.htm

And if so, anyone bought from here before? Any other recommendations as to where to get one?

Cheers.

I see no reason why it's not a Brembo. It looks exactly like the P32 caliper that DucatiPaddy is selling for £129 with pads, pin and spring.
http://www.ducatipaddy.com/page26.html Scroll down to rear calipers to find the P32.

If it's just seals that it needs, you would probably get them from https://www.powerhouse.uk/ They might do pistons too.

You could also try Moto Rapido for the whole caliper or just seals and you'd be sure it was the right part, and get it the next day including UKMOC discount.

The seals are very easy to do, there is just an O-ring between the caliper halves and normal seals on the pistons. Change the bolts for bright ones while you're at it.

Also on the Sie, check the bushes and top hats in the caliper hanger where it bears on the axle, are in good condition and lube with fresh moly-grease.
The torque rod rose joint ends are prone to wear too. Use Chrome-moly ones from McGills

Yes, that is the correct caliper for a 2000 900ie.

It's a BR 20.5161.43. I had a 900ie and S2R 1000 and I fitted a BR.5161.42 to the S2R. The BR 20.5161.43 is a replacement for the BR 20.5161.42 and, since the 900 and S2R calipers were interchangeable, the BR 20.5161.43 will be fine for your bike. (The mounting hole centres should be 84mm apart.)

Thanks guys.

I may well try to salvage what I have, so thanks for the advice on that too.

Yes, I've fell foul of these already!

Do you happen to know which ones are replacements from McGills? The OEM ones from Moto Rapido were a little expensive!

I bought a Brembo RCS master cylinder from Carpimoto, no problems with them or the product whatsoever and the best price I could find.

Don't buy bearings from Ducati, you'll pay 5 times what they'll cost from anywhere else.

Mr Gazza · 06-10-2019, 05:25 PM

Jake, it's these ones you want. https://www.mcgillmotorsport.com/m8-...ce-rod-end-90/

They will outlast the other types. I take them off and roll moly-grease round the ball whenever I'm in that area doing anything, at least once a year.
I use stainless half nuts on them, but any M8x1.25 nut will do.
McGill's also list rubber boots for the rod ends, but I've never succeeded in fitting them satisfactorily. The Chrome-moly ones seem to resist the grit and grime anyway.
