Another little bit of progress today, the brake linkage has been reassembled after a bit of a struggle. It's good to know that you can actually get the lever and the linkage hooked up without taking the footrest off, and that without taking the exhaust off.
It's quite apparent however that there is an awful lot of friction in the system. It has to be said that I have not lubricated either the cable or the brake lever, but the bell crank has been greased. The other point to mention here is that at some point in the not too distant future, these parts will all need to be plated.
We'll see how we go over the next few days.
