Hello to all, I am in need of shims for both the front and rear calipers on my '79, if anyone has one or more to sell, I'd appreciate a PM,
 
Yeah, there are two shims that go between the caliper piston and the brake pads. They hold a slight pressure on the pads so they don't rattle.
 
partszilla.com shows they have the front one but that the rear one is obsolete. You might check with some of the other OEM suppliers, like WesternHonda and the others. Or maybe you could luck up on some at a bike salvage yard or ebay.
