    S1000XR brake caliper clips

    2015-2019 Model

    Does anyone know of a source of the small spring clips that prevent front brake pad retaining pins from unscrewing in service?

    I just want a couple of the spring clips, rather than kits at £21 to get each one.

    it's the little 'P clip' made of wire - in the photo below.

    Thanks - not quite there, but would suffice at a push.

    Those "R" clips are principally for pins with a hole in the end, outside of the 'load' length.

    I found these, which fit a lot of the R-series, so just need to measure the pins on those calipers to see if they are the same (they can't be that different?)
