Hi guys!

Yesterday evening I drived my Gilera XR1 at home.
Finally!!!

Well... engine it's very good! It runs very well.....
Now it's at the begin of a new life.... and, actually, max 6000/6500 rpm!!!

But..... when I was at home, after few kilometers, I heard a "low" wheezing noise became from engine!!!!!

I think it's a little problem whit the bearing of water pump.... I hope!!!

Instead.... brakes are not very good. After some purge works, new brake oil, and new brake pads, the results it's not perfect...... and I need it!

So, now I'll look for a Brembo recovery set for brakes pumps and calipers!

Uff!!!!!!!

And we go!

Next days new photo upgrade!!!

Ciao

Did your source also offer repair kits for other Brembo stuff?
The rear pump of the Saturno for example?
Seems to be that Brembo will not sell this kits anymore

Hi Joachim!

Well.... I don't think so.....
I want to say..... that, there are just a definite type and number of Brembo pump in commerce.
A rear pump for a bike.... sometimes it's the same for an other bike!
My Brembo recovery kit (that I've used for my Gilera XR1), for example, it's for Aprilia 125..... (that have the same brake system).
So, I think that We can try to find easily this recovery kit....

Tell me if you need it!
You are welcome!

Ciao

As far as I know Brembo will not sell those repair kits any more (at least I have been told so)

I wil see if i can find more detailed informations for you.

Thanks, Joachim
