Dear All,
I have acquired a second C15 (will I never learn!?). Hopefully this one will be a goer..
But, I am curious. My existing bike has an air scoop on the front brake for cooling, and this one doesn't. I'll see if I can get some photos. But does this imply that bike no 1 has been fitted with the more powerful Triumph brake at some point in its life?
BR, Ian
I don't recall any C15 brakes with air-scoops, so yes, its got something else fitted, but without a photo its hard to know what. There's a good chance its an improvement but check how its been fitted with the spindle and anchor, dangerous bodges are not unknown.
Here's a photo which I took this afternoon. ;D
That looks like a airscoop from under the front seat of a Lambretta.
I did that to my A10 brake many years ago.
OK, that makes more sense, so its the STD brake plate with a scoop and some holes. That means it will fit properly and no issues with the fork lug. Looks rather nice.
At least they put exit holes a lot of people forget that.
