Brake shoe rebuilding?

Postby Rudix » Sun Jun 05, 2011 4:10 pm

Hi everyone,

I have decided to do something about my non-existent brakes on the Bushbaby :shock:

Is it possible to re-line the (drum) brake shoes myself? If not feasible is there a place in the Pretoria area than can do it for me?

Thanks for any info!

Fly safe,
Rudi

Hi Rudix as jy drom remme het, neem die skoene saam na n Honda motorfiets handelaar, hulle is dieselfde as n sekere Honda motorfiets se voorste remskoene. vhpy
