Featured Brake Upgrade

Not wanting to fit a non original TLS to my 66 i talked my mate Fatman into cutting me a 1" longer lever with an offset drive square to keep cable adjustment, works a treat

 

He's made a good job of that,

 

He certainly did

 

Unless you know your stuff it would be difficult to tell its not original, more torque applied for same pressure I presume

 

Lol, yes we ripped off Triumphs design big time as one does.

 

WELL DONE !...J.D.

 

Question : How much does it change the travel on the lever ? ...J.D.

 

Not ridden the bike much as its so new and cable brakes have a lot of lever movement as normal but i can say it's got way more feel now and brakes are far sharper.

 

Nice work, indeed. He should enter production, darkman - I'm going to need one for my TR6!

 

If you really want it to be quick and cheap, I highly recommend looking for a Chinese manufacturer. They copy practically everything, even copies from other manufacturers are copied immediately.

 

3.5 mm exactly!

 

Aye and they would make it out of Chinesium crap metal that would bend upon first application

 

Of course, they will immediately send you a free replacement that is at least as bad as everything else! Isn't that great?

 

I love it when I see small custom bits added as long as they are done well like this one. Makes a already very good machine even better. usually.the store bought crap is just that...crap. I have a mini-lathe, drill press, and some other things around the shop. Really satisfying when you come up with an improvement on your own. ...J.D.

 

Very neat and tidy,Darkman as per usual

 

Sorting an arm out for you at a later date would be no problem Adie.

 

I'll count on you to remember ................................
