Please respect the “Just a Picture” theme, limiting description to about one sentence, and without chat. The idea is a folder of uninterrupted pictures. I will respect that and remove this post in two days.

mod edit: done some cleanup :O)

Frame / Re: TLS Brake Shoe Question

I reckon its a B40 front wheel, 7" Full width hub.  Odd that its ended up on an A10.
Many years ago i had a B40 SS90, not one of my favourite bikes. I don't recall the front brake being much use, certainly not as good as the 8" half width.

If quality and a good fit of the ear are what you want then Feked aren't the boys for you.
They sell the same Taiwan junk as every other Ebay chancer.

Some of the ones Feked sell are described as 'genuine' with the Doherty trade mark Rex, made in Birmingham, but a lot are indeed 'replica' or '-type' and no different from some of the stuff on e-bay, too true. Price is usually a good indicator as - what a surprise - you get what you pay for.

Good advice, thanks. Looks like I’m looking for an 8” FW Hub, as it happens I have a very good 8” brake plate assembly 

Anyone looking for a refurbished 7” T100 TLS Brake  PM me

Other BSAs, Other Bikes, Cars, Machinery & Tools / Picked up my R60/2 & it’s new Steib today

« Last post by Macbeth on 19.12. 2024 07:35 »

Picked up my R60/2 & it’s new Steib today. This has been an 8 mth project. So hard to get an experienced outfit man these days & the waiting list is long to get in. Even harder to find a good chair that’s not someone else’s mess. Always regretted selling my 1st one in the early 90’s.

Bit still to sort. Cut & fit the inside trims as they came from factory too big & I’ve got to pop some rear lights on it & redirect my left side micro indicators

Had a great test ride & missed having a sidecar so much. It’s now my Ute as I don’t have a car

Still got to find a machine shop to do a few of the needed jobs and when the time comes will have them turn down the bushing.
Still waiting for a NOS 1st gear bushing as I have very little play and will have them ream that too.
