2008 Fatboy Front Caliper Seal Kit??
My front caliper on my 08 Fatboy seems to be draging slightly and making a noise when I slow down to stop or park, etc.. I wanted to remove the pistons and give them a good cleaning. I went to my local dealership to purchase the seals and I was told that the only kit available included the pistons and the cost was $75.00. Needless to say I held off on this purchase because I don't think I need the pistons. Does any one know if these seals can be purchased without the pistons?

Just take the caliper off, retract the pistons with the brake lever and spray with brake cleaner. Hit them with a toothbrush if necessary. Push them back in and you should be good.
