if you want a new one from service honda, expect to pay out the ***** ... $200+ just for a new caliper. I'm in the same predicament you're in. Even the used ones on ebay are like $150 and there's no telling what shape they're in. I'm doing the 450r rear brake conversion...just waiting on my parts

If the rear caliper is sticking a little it is either from the parking brake or the is some crude behind the rubber seals. Most people don't replace the caliper they just pump the 2 little pistons out of the caliper, remove the rubber seals ( 2 per piston) clean the crude out, clean the pistons, either replace the rubber seals ($4 each) or cleanand reuse them, reinstall the pistons with fresh fluid and bleed the brakes and it solves the problem.

well the mount bracket that slides on the caliper (mounting thing) is frozen in place and the pistons are stuck as well, so instead of wasting time and money on a 20 yr old caliper I just got a new system.
