Does anyone know the year/model of this rear brake caliper. Its on a 1985 FXRT ( friend said its a baggar swingarm) I gotta try to replace it, stripped banjo treads. I had a softail with the same I think (in the 90s) I cannot find this bastard. Thank guys.
That is a 2000 and up 4 piston HD caliper. Not sure which model bike it came from but that is what it is. Parts and pads to rebuild should be readily available, good luck.
Architect - GOOD CALL!!!! Got the same 4 piston caliper on my 07 Dyna. The mounting bracket it different but all ya need is the front half of the caliper. Might wanna look on ebay.
