1300 Owners - Something to check............

#1 Post by Triumph1300 »

I've had quite a fright today.......

Can I suggest that the main front to rear brake line is checked for corrosion, in the bit you can't see, where it goes over the rear suspension cross member........ ..

New underwear wasn't required when the middle pedal hit the floor this morning, but could have been. :(

Yep, that'd be the normal technique Rich, but with 9 foot of trailer on the back....
