no i mean like the caliper and the pump thank you though for the address of that though but the deal that the foot lever pushes on and all that i have pads and fluid resivoir and hoses. i have everything but i think the piston inside my caliper got moist inside and swelled up cuz i can get it to moved only with my hand i ripped it apart and cleaned in even smoothend it up with light sand paper and nothing i think i need a whole new caliper and piston and what not i cant find one anywhere i cleaned it all out and changed the fluid and blead the brakes and i even mashed on the lever with the bleader valve open and it shot fluid out its just not making my caliper clamp on that disk HELLPP MMEE!! . And does anyone know why i have oil in the little connecting peice that connects my carb to my air box the bottom of that little connecting peice always has oil on on the inside of it i clean it everytome but it always comes back?? boggling my mind

thanks alot!! i appreciate it the only ordeal is that i change one of the seals only because only one was bad do you think the rebuild kit would really help my sitiation cuz its so freakin hard to push that piston out with my fingers the only way we were able to get it out was using a c-clamp on it and driving it out i just dont wanna buy a new rebuild kit if it aint gonna work ya know??

x2... you also might want to get the rebuild kit for the master cylinder (the deal that the foot lever pushes on). If its your caliper, chances are the piston would cause the brakes to stick on. If it's the master cylinder, you might get one pump out of it then the master cylinder piston seizes. Try lightly sanding the m/c piston sides. These things don't like to work right if theres crap clogging it up. Use brake fluid to lube your rubber seals when you go to put it back together.

yeah i made sure i lubed them up with fluid before i put them back in and you think that could be the problem when i took off i did notice alot of corrosion like crap on the bottom of it thanks for the info

when the seals go bad they cause the piston to get stuck. I have never seen the atc 250r cal in person but dont they have 2 o-rings on the piston? if so I really think that will fix your problem.

The manual says "if the piston sticks in the caliper cylinder, indicating severe wear or galling, the entire unit should be replaced", but it sounds like yours is moving (somewhat)...I've had luck with unfreezing several calipers just being patient with them and keep working them till they free up. Not sure if this place has the repair kit in stock, but your local motorcycle parts place should be able to get them. http://www.atcheaven.com/ATC250r.php?pageNum_ATC250R=3&totalRows_ATC250R=232
I've seen the whole rear brake set up on eBay and recently, and I think they usually run in the $250's + used...but, I could mistaken.

Not sure where you are talking about. Does fluid touch the corrosion? if so try the steel wooll and see if you can get to it with it and if you cant then its time for a new one.

im pretty positive theres nothing wrong with the mater cylinder though because when i left the bleeder valve open and stepped on the brake lever it shot fluid out. what do you think about tthat?? still good you think or not sure cuz i have no idea im thinkin about buying a rebuild kit but dont want to if its not gonna do anything and thanks again holdontrike i think i may get that if thats my problem

If it pumps fluid then its working, but I would want to clean it out at least because if any of the corroison breaks free it will end up in you rebuilt cal.
You can heat up a straw from a can of carb cleaner or wd40 and wrap it in steel wool and it will make a steel wool q-tip that works great for small or hard to reach spots.

I agree with the cleaning before repairing, and the steel wool Q-tip idea is brilliant! I made a note of that for future reference cause I know that will come in handy;-)
