russelld Posted February 7, 2009 Report Share Posted February 7, 2009 Hi all, I am hoping someone can help as I am totally stuck with my front brake on my 200!!! I feel like an idiot but I cannot get any tension on the cable at all, I have a brand new Domino lever and brand new Venhill cable and tried to put it on today but cant get it to work, (brake was dodgy before the new cable etc, it had a homemade tension adjuster on the front of the fork and the arm was facing to the front of the bike and not around the back of the fork and to the cylinder head the way it should, but this has been rectified now and everything looks the way it should) even took the wheel off and the shoes look good and the arm is working the way it should aswell, only thing I am not sure about is if the arm from the drum plate to the front fork is the correct or original one, would this make a difference? Cheers Russell PS My forks are the ones where the tension bolt goes through the mudgaurd stay. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bilc0 Posted February 7, 2009 Report Share Posted February 7, 2009 (edited) tension bolt goes through the mudgaurd stay. You may need a longer tension bolt to take the slack. Edited February 7, 2009 by bilc0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
