I'm currently fitting some new front cables to the old F Super, along with a full strip down of all the other bits, rollers, tappets, plungers, wedges, thackery washers, springs, the expander unit, adjuster unit, cable compensator...string brakes...it's a bit of a black art getting it all to work perfectly

That's why I can't be arsed with the original string brakes on my 1933 JAP Super Sports.

I'm running 7" Morris Minor twin leading shoe front brake plates, FIAT 500 brake drums and Colin Wilson cast steel sliders.

Keeping the rear more or less standard but with a floating brake cam (ex Ewan Cameron)

Whole design was checked by my pal Steve Hughes who knows a bit about braking systems!

Sounds a good upgrade Arwyn

Fortunately mine's not as fast as a proper V Twin laugh2
