Front brake cylinder centering pin

Post by Ted928 »

How is this pin removed? I want to rove the pin so that I can feel the piston seal in the cylinder without the pin drag.

I apologize for the confusion. I am asking about the front caliper cylinder. There is a pin that centers the piston.

OK.
I don't think that pin is removable but it may be off centre slightly causing the drag you notice :?
