Brake caliper bolt snapped
 
Came home and as i pulled onto the drive my rear brake caliper was loose and locked the back wheel up/ lucky i got home and wasent riding still. the fixing (not sure what its called) inbetween the swingarm and wheel what the top caliper bolt screws into must of been cracked and has broken off and nowhere to be seen. where can i get one from or would one of a 250 like this fit?

Bike is a 2002 ec 300

200/250/300 are the same chassis from what I have read, so any frame/chassis/brake bits should swap right over.

My guess from your description is that it's the caliper bracket. It has a slot in it to hang on the swingarm tab as well as a hole for the rear axle. It acts as the wheel spacer as well as caliper bracket.

If it looks like this, then you have a part number as well.
