Yamaha blaster rear brake caliper

Hi I recently bought a blaster. It has no rear brake caliper. Where can I get one for cheap? Thanks

May be worth checking aftermarket suppliers. Some calipers are reasonably cheap, some unavailable. Also the eBay scrap bike specialists.

Thanks for your reply. I forgot to mention it’s a disc brake and not hydraulic so I can’t find anything I don’t know why! It’s an 01 blaster

OK, the aftermarket makers didn't bother making mechanical calipers as far as I know, so the scrapers are the only cheap way to get parts. If someone is selling other used parts for a Blaster, it is worth contacting them to find out if they still have the caliper assembly.

Yeah I’ll definitely do that. I have tons of woods to ride in and trails, but their all mud. How should I approach the trails? Should I build my own? Should I try going through the mud? I’m not sure. I just want to not get lost on the trails. Thanks
