Hi,

I have a 1987 honda 250r with some front brake problems. I have drained the brakelines, changed the pads and cleaned up the calipers as much as possible without pulling out the pistons, and I still have sticky brakes. The brakes do there job and stop the thing but they drag. After I push the pistons back in the hubs and rotors turn fine but when I apply the brakes they stick afterwards. I am not sure if I should pull the pistons out and rebuild them or not, or if it is the master cylinder.

Any info or help would be greatly appreciated.

ok looks like I am going to rebuild the calipers. do I get the rebuild kits from honda or are they going to sell me individual parts?

Also should I rebuild the master cylinder while I have it all apart?

also it looks like that from some of the sites with microfiche that the parts are going to be around $150 for everything. Is this normal?
