Can anyone advise as to where to purchase an anti-rattle spring for the six pot Nissin sourced front brake calipers on a 1999 (and later) S3 Thunderbolt? I bought a Performance Machine spring in error; and Nissin advises me to contact my dealer - and if you fill out their 'contact us' form and send it, they respond that 'the requested page or resource could not be found.' Thanks, | ||

Here is the part number for the 2000 M2 cyclone. Not sure if it is the same but probably is. See if a Buell H/D dealer can still get it. Part # H0024.F1 | ||

Check with Lance at St. Paul Buell Ebay store. | ||

The correct part number for the brake pad retainer clip for the front Nissin caliper aka "anti-rattle string" is H0021.F. I don't have any in stock and neither does Vintage parts. I also did a dealer search and come up with nothing. The H0024.F1 isn't a Buell number and the H0024.F is a rear anti-rattle clip. | ||

Does anyone have the nissin caliper part number? Is it used on other bikes perhaps? | ||

One number is right, the other number is wrong \^(oo)^/ . It says front. I don't believe I've ever dealt with this place before and hope I'm not busting any forum rules but this part is almost unobtanium. {link retracted}. I'm sending a PM for now. I'd hate to see 50 people jump on buying one as a spare while the OP misses out on it. I wish I could remember where I got mine. Took me a year to find it but I was probably looking for the wrong number like the one I posted earlier. I dug that from an old post of mine I found when I started my search.

Thanks, Jim2. I'll follow up with the domestic supplier, and we'll see how it goes. First is to find my Precision Machine anti-rattle spring and try to figure out if it is different than the illustration, then order. I'll report back to the mob as to how I make out. Tucked the old 1969 Kawasaki 500 H1 Triple in for the winter today; the Buell within the next week. Thanks again, Doug |
