Scooterotica

interesting article in this months scootering,a new back brake set up that works.anybody using one?,ive bit the bullet and ordered one but wont be in a bike for a few months while i get it painted ect...
it worked out with postage 53quid.....if it works fine i think its a bargain

Been around since last July at least http://scooterotica.org/forum/viewtopic ... in#p121124

Fitted one on my GP....improved braking but still not brilliant....may need a bit more tweaking ? .....don't get your hopes up !!

It can't hurt, but for my money, the ScootRS front disk is still the best thing I've ever bought for a Lambretta. I use the back brake to slow down. If I want to stop I use the front.

i use them on my series 2 and my gp. worked so well on the gp i went out and bought another set for the series 2 but they dont work so well on it as the gp.

A welcome innovation for sure. But, in my experience, if you have a decent hub, shoes, cable and Li cam set up you shouldn't have a problem. Even on an Indian 200 case. Both mine will lock up at 30mph+ if I'm not careful.

Good luck with yours. What's the new Camel livery?

hmmm an sx200.clone...maybe a supertune...we shall see....

I too fitted this upgrade to my Lammy, it has improved the braking, but not by a great deal.

ok thanks for the replies,i wasnt expecting miracles for the price,but with rear brakes so hit and miss any improvement is good
