Re: Vic titles
What's with the front brake Links?
I can't pick it. Hub side looks Jap but short cam arms and cable at the back looks Euro.
Plenty of room there to get to the carbs - ah, the joys of vintage racing .
Looks and interesting racer, lots of owner mods I would guess.
(Okay, okay, I'm off to the garage now. Found the barrels I just have to remove them, check, measure and photo them, and I'll get back to you .)

Re: Vic titles
Hi the front brake is actually t500 as i had heaps laying around but it kept getting too hot with the race linings so it had a scoop which is sort of a TD1C
Re: Vic titles
I wouldn't have picked a T500 because of the brake torque anchor/plate. I knew the T500 as a lug anchored f/brake. The cable straight up the back is different (and lots better IMHO) as well. IIRC the biggest advantage of the T500 had was it was an 8 inch rather than the more popular 7 inch, and had about 50% more swept area.Link wrote:Hi the front brake is actually t500 as i had heaps laying around but it kept getting too hot with the race linings so it had a scoop which is sort of a TD1C
You must be braking bloody hard to have heat issues . Although I remember losing the brakes to brake fade on the YDS5 after 3-4 downhill 120 to 40 braking efforts in the Kangaroo Valley back when I was a boy - what doesn't kill you can only make you stronger .
