Default Vrod calipers

Hey all you fab H-D’ers.
Ive never done this, but trying to reach out to someone who maybe able to help. I have a lovely bobber Vrod vrscaw custom body job.
Afyer not using properly for a few months 2weny out this morning to start a new commute to work, only to find my back callipers smoking like a demon, and completely stopped me for a while.
The very helpfu garage said I needed new caulkers as it looks like the guys who powder coated my bike after a rebuild have buggered them up by not stripping them properly. Now need new calipers- which seem to be only available as new, and not in the uk any time before mid sept at the cost of almost £1,000 for the tee! Any help would be so gratefully received.
