So we can get a seal set for the rear caliper now? Woohoo!!!! about time!!!!
Although the rear caliper is ok at the moment as it was given a good clean over winter the m/c is another matter though
Do we need a part number or anything to oreder from roadrunners?
Edit: what's the cost of the seals?

No part number needed, just ring them and tell them the details of the bike.
Get on with it before you die (or the law catches up with you)...

Surest way to make sure you have all the air out is use a hand vacuum pump.
A lot quicker & more thorough bleeding.
If it is still spongy after that it'll probably be m/c seal blow by.

When i ordered my new one it arrived in 2 days, for £40 it has to be the better option.

Your Rapter looks like a sci fi robot dragon! and it breaths fire too! It singed my eye brows and boiled my eyes at the lights! smudge

Re: Rear Caliper - Seals
Hi probably a stupid question but is the 650 caliper the same as the thou?
Hey snap did you manage to find ktm part numbers? there is a ktm guy 50miles from me might try him(thats close for round here)
can anyone confirm that the caliper is a brembo 32g?

650 brakes, same as a thou. I reckon all the original master cylinders ( rear ) had a type fault.
new ones seem OK, my rear has been fine since I changed the master cylinder.
