I think I killed it. The ride a few days ago , my rear brake gave me a “ OK I’ve had enough “ groan really bad pulling into the fruit stand. I think it’s time to start collecting parts to repair/replace/rebuild. Real short ride today to verify its passing. I must have roasted it , sounds similar to a EV that metal dragging on metal sound. I know it’s not metal on metal unless the lining crumbled to dust , not likely. Big brake up front is used to covering rear brake or lack there of. I’m listening if anyone has a solution other than replacing rear hub/brake. I have a few ideas.

I got some eBay junk parts to coming to try something different. I already have a new set of grooved EBC shoes on the shelf , maybe 2 sets. The rear brake is more difficult operate but go the other way it is way easier. So cam must be to blame or brake was intended to operate the other way. So l will see what I can come up with. Put something together that works better than stock can’t be too tough , this drum brake is bottom of the barrel of quality. So while I was searching for parts I found this , a drum to hyd.disc kit that fits your drum brake , keep your rear wheel. A pre bled system , bolt-on and I suspect some fabrication required , spacers & brake anchor & mount res. and the BLS. Need to measure my rear axle before I email them with my order. Think it’s in Europe somewhere. Remmotorcycle Co.
