I had a similar problem with my '82 Yamaha 1100 a couple years ago and lots of my parts had been discontinued, but I finally found them at a premium price. You might try soaking the calipers in brake cleaner and just working with them a little bit each day for a few days to help free the piston. It doesn't matter what brand you motorcycle is parts for them are going to cost you a premium price because they are considered recreational vehicles.
