Removing Front Brake Retaining Pin

I just had a look through the fische for the 91 model and there is no mention of dust covers. Perhaps your brakes are different Pete. I know they changed the design slightly after 89. I've never heard of putting silicon over screw heads before to keep dust out but I guess it's not such a daft idea. Just a bastard to clean off when you do want to get at it.

Part no 18................
Getting the silicone out is easier than getting the covers off sometimes - just dig the lump out with a screwdriver, and put a new blob in when done.

You can solve the problem the same way honda did.
Change to the later PLASTIC pin plug.

Never had a problem since I changed to the plastic one - and never had a pin come loose either.
