Trying to find pads to suit this caliper, i thought it would be the same as my RD mk2/3 brake pads but they dont fit. Any ideas what it's off? I was sold it as a TZR125 caliper but when i look at the pads online they look the same as the ones I have already that dont fit. It's a Sumitomo, 45mm between the brake pad pins. Cheers, Simon.

That looks like a slightly older calliper than the TZR one. Try FZ600?

Just found something very similar in my spares marked as 'YPVS rear' but certain it's isn't now. Sumitomo embossed on the rear, and a bleed nipple for each half on mine, be interested in what you find.
Not sure those pad pins are in right, do they have circlips inside?
Pads I'm guessing are FA88 or possibly FA104 (holes closer together)

Hmm. I thought they were from a FZR but they seem to have two bleed nipples. These are 83mm bolt spacing and fit the RD125LC perfectly.
The pins are in alright, they are supposed to had a clip on them but I ended up threading them and fitting different pins. Unfortunealy I threaded the wrong side! I'll go back and do the other side some day.

That looks about right, only from the front. The other rear's I've seen, the body of the caliper looks the same but the pins are too close together. That above looks perfect. I'll order up some cheap Koyo brake pads and see if they fit.
Next question: where do you get a replacement for the little bronze spring thing that goes above the brake pads inside the caliper?

Do they still have pads in them? Do they look like: or Thanks for all the replies guys.

Looks a lot like an FZ750 caliper.
I just bought a set to put on my F2 forks. The piston diameter is a bit bigger than the 350s

Excellent, the ones I have (that dont fit) are the top ones. Thanks man. Last piece of the puzzle... What's that called? I've searched high and low and can't find it for sale anywhere.
