About to fit the front brake and the pads have come with a plastic ring spacer which looks to fit to the back of the pad and against the piston.
Looks like it fits neatly on the 400 piston so assume it should be fitted.
Haven't seen this before so just wondered if it is common - presumably to allow pads to fit to varying piston sizes maybe?
Cheers,

Nope, its suposed to be on all the sohc 4 pads and in theory stops the squealing----but it dont

Thanks Bryan,
Never seen one before on other bikes so good to get confirmation it should be there - even if it doesn't work!

Never came on the 750 SOHC Bryan ;)

Sorry bout that, forgot the 750 was a hollow piston with a big bit instead of small ring

Don't fit it. On my CB350F it caused the brake to bind so I took it out again.
There wasn't enough adjustment to get sufficient clearance with the plastic ring in place.
