a twist of lockwire will get the bike back on the road. pretty sure the clips are not available seperately from brembo.

Assuming you mean R-clips Jerry? as the E key is next the R key.
I bet you turn round and look before you flush, so why don't you check before posting?

I got some stainless R-clips quite a long time ago for my Ti pins. They appear to still be available. https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/124099130...IAAOSwt4xfPofi
Select 1mm diameter.

no, the rear caliper has an e-clip on the pin, it’s a brembo special, with a folded over lip that makes it easy to pop out (ping… f*#kit!)

Oh! Those fiddly little numbers! I didn't know they were called E-clips.
I might have a spare somewhere, but it will be rusty for sure.

Is this any good to you Jerry?
https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/285778599...Bk9SR_KNt-niYw

Or this which is a non standard set up that they claim will fit. Uses a clip in both grooves so could be good?

You can buy replica pin kits for Brembo calipers which include the e clip for around £6

I bought one for my Belgarda tdr125 3sh and ended up using it on my 900 as fitted as per Brembo parts

This isn't the exact one I purchased as I paid approx £6 for my two sets (each).
