HEEEHAAWWW!!! I forgot to put a cotter pin back in one of the front caliper's brake pad support pins on my 96 S1. ( popped out on the highway... never to be seen again)
Dealer says they don't even have a part # for it....
Anybody?

My local ace hardware carries them in different lengths. Give them a shot

Find another dealer.
I've ordered on in the past, maybe a year ago..
My S2 parts manual doesn't show the part number either.
I may have gotten the part directly from PM, I don't remember for sure.

I just remembered wher I ordered it, Appleton HD!
When Andy still worked there.

Any dealer should be able to get it easily. IF not, let me know . . . I have a box of them buried somewhere I **think**

Dealer parts lookup does *not* show a part number for caliper parts, you have to go thru PM directly.

I got a couple of these pins for my '96 S1 from Appleton back when Andy was there. Part number H0112.8, cost $1.35 list.

I know I ruined one, but I might have a spare in my box of stuff.

If you still need one, let me know and I'll do some digging.

I think I went the simple way when mine were worn out.

Replaced them with a couple stainless steel bolts/nuts. Add some safety wire and good to go. I only need to cut the wire on the bolts to pull the pads. Pull the bolts out, leaving the nuts tied together.

I took the remaining one with me to the hardware store, found a bolt with a smooth area the size of the pin before its threads, cut the threads off with a grinder and drilled a hole for the retaining pin. Works fine for me...

I think I have a few in stock, but I'm at home at the moment and can't tell from here. I know they aren't on the website. Call, 760-727-2333
