Does anyone remember who used to sell good aftermarket brake pistons? They were nice stainless, if I remember correctly.

Pistons for Interstate rear calipers are smaller in diameter than the ones
for Standards and Tourers.

Funny, I just learned that last night. I was on Ron Ayers looking at parts and noticed the P/N was different than what I'd seen before. I was accidentally looking at Interstate parts.

Thanks for the headsup.

Brakecrafters sells Honda OEM parts. They package them up in a kit and include seal lube. Good folks to deal with. I had an issue and they fixed it right away. The issue was they did not realize the IS rear brakes were smaller than the others. I'm sure they fixed their packaging by now.
