Folks - apologies if this has been covered before, but does anyone know where you can get dust seals for the pistons on the rear brake caliper of my Saturno? Mine are cracked and brittle.
I've tried Bob Wrights but he's never been able to get hold of them.
The caliper is stamped as Gilera but I guess it could be a rebranded Brembo or Grimeca or something like that. Any ideas?

the Saturno should have the same rear caliper as the Nordies
Manufacturer should be Grimeca
Check please if it has 32mm pistons.

If yes..... Aprilia Ref.: AP8113122 (Leonardo '99 and others)
Should be a complete set with 2 sealings, 2 dust caps and a bleeder valve cap
I only have stored this information from the french forum years ago.
I have not tested that! So be carefull.

ciao Joachim

Thanks Joachim - they ARE 32mm, so that is great information.
I have found a set on eBay and ordered them - so hopefully that resolves that little problem.
regards,
Andrew.

Using the AP number on eBay bought up a company that were charging £50!
By searching for "Grimeca 32mm" I tracked down a Karting place in the UK called Gemini Karts, and they have a kit for £16.80 - which is much more palatable.
