My front brake caliper is leaking and is getting brake fluid on the brake pads... not good. Is there rebuild kits available anywhere? I see that replacing the caliper, as I would my car is going to be to expencive for this bike.. what are my options?

	Keep in mind my pet thing.....a good valve adjustment...these engines "Love" a good valve adjustment about every 5,000 miles.

Is it better to rebuild the one i got or replace with a used one and hope the used one is in better shape than mine?
