I find at our age that it's a difficult enough job to keep your regular partner satisfied ;)

Sagely RP uttered "I find at our age that it's a difficult enough job to keep your regular partner satisfied "

So why do you keep deleting all the would be Viagra salesmen trying to get on the Forum then ????

Anyway, I trust that I am not included in the "our age" bit .......

Couldnt work our how to plumb it in mate,, with the front or convert the rear to hydrolic :?

If rear hub is from a Norton Dommi then hydraulic is simple Tom. All you need is the brake back plate and attachments from a Reliant - fits straight in :d

Sidecar brake? Real men never used to have them :lachtot: :lachtot: :lachtot:

Anyway, on a 16 incher who needs brakes - just chuck it in sideways to scrub speed off, big handful with opposite lock and away you go, ready for the next one :-P Luvly jubbly ;)

Hello Bob,

No mate its a beemer rear, dont realy want to get too far from bmw parts,,,,,,,,, :? i get confused when i start mix and match ;)

As for the sidecar brake,,, well i dont know, i can see where Charlie2 is coming from,, Ive not written off a third stopper, its still an option,, all i had to base my thinking on is Dave's beemer,, i think im right in saying its drums front and back and no third stopper,,, to me as a humble monkey it seemed to go well and stop ok, BUT to be honest i have no idea how much Dave has to fight it to make it behave.......... ;) But i did enjoy the slidey bits we did. So ill leave the OTHER anchor in the air for the moment,,,,,,, Back the real question,,,, will it be Classic or Post Classic :?
