Default Any one buy Ebay Calipers?

I need to replace my front caliper on my 02 heritage and see Ebay has some for around $125.00.

Wondering if any body bought these or similar aftermarket ones and had any problems with leaking,pistons sticking etc...

The one differance I can see is they do not have the two bolts holding the caliper together like my OEM one does.

Thanks,

I will soon find out. I have a 93 fatty and wanted to upgrade my present brake system. I bought a set that are like the 2000 model but are made to fit earlier bikes. They will take the stock OEM brake pads

i bought one on ebayfor my deuce last year, just a cheaper no-name chrome front caliper...looks exactly like the OEM caliper less the harley insignia. don't want to jinx myself, but so far no problems at all. it's ironic, i bought the cheap front caliperwith no problems, and then spent nearly $800 for a PM rear driveside caliper to go with my phatail setup, and have hadnothing but problems with it.

i believe this is similar to what i got...

Put on my set and so far no problems. Fits like it was made for the 93. The chrome isn't bad neither. Just like the other reply........just cheaper caliper with out the HD name on it. So far no leaks and it gave my ride a 4 piston set up from the single piston. Time will tell tho.
