JBuick Posted October 26, 2019 Share Posted October 26, 2019 Hello All, Just completed my first brake relining on my ‘21 Roadster. So far, it went very smooth. Made sure brake geometry was correct first. Then on to the road test. After the first test pass, the usual routine — I felt the brake bands to see which of the two was hotter. Once I made it to the fine adjustment phase, I was surprised by how significant minimal band adjustments could be felt — the steering wheel would pull, etc. With a few pull over to the side of the road adjustments the correct pedal travel and left/right brake balance where achieved. Here is a pic of two different friction linings. Dark grey was what was on there before. Lighter color I’m trying. Just for kicks, I tried half and half on each side. We will see how it goes! 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Otto Cycle Posted October 31, 2019 Share Posted October 31, 2019 This is funny....my 1917 the brakes pull to the left but the parking brake pulls to the right. If I use both at the same time it brakes in a straight line. If I stop on a left turn I use my brakes. If I stop on a right turn I use my parking brakes!!!!
