BRB Posted January 26, 2010 Share Posted January 26, 2010 I found it somewhat hard tracking down the right brake shoes for my cafe project but after a lot of research I found about four different brands to choose from. Out of the four there was only one really worth buying that would give braking performance much higher than stock and when talking two-wheel drum setup this definitely is a significant point. I decide after a lengthy conversation with a vintage motorcycle brake specialist in California who discussed/compared all other manufacturers products in great detail to purchase the Ferodo brand shoes. Definite no-brainer! The part #'s are FSB 770 front and FSB 736 for those of you out there who are interested in buying a new set or are having trouble tracking down the right ones. The cost difference is about $10 US more for the fronts and about $0-3 US more for the rears when comparing to other brands. When it comes to brake performance a couple dollars savings shouldn't even be apart of the equation. BRB Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
