Rear Brake Spring
« on: May 30, 2015, 06:17:44 AM »
Hi Guys,

I'm real stuck on how to assemble to the rear brakes now I have the replacement part for my rearsets that snapped.  I have them mocked up but can't seem to find anything online about the sping that loads the brake to normal / off position.  Any ideas or direct on where it connects?  A video or diagram would be ideal for myself. 

Apologies, but I left the honda manual at home and working on it about 50miles way at the moment.

thanks in advance as normal!!

Hi

Its the spring that returns the brake pedal.  Can't seem to find how it goes?

Ok, I have got it attached to the brake but can't find where on frame it connects.   Driving me absolutely mad!

Is it the one with the rubber boot on the inside of it?  A picture would be amazing, surprisingly there isn't much online in terms of attaching the thing to the frame with an exact location.

I would also you go to the front page and download one of the original owners manual.

But we were boys, and boys will be boys, and so they will. To us, everything was dangerous, but what of that? Had we not been made to live forever?
