So that you guys can get some ideas for your own rearsets and drum brakes to use etc. here are a few to get you thinking. They are mostly mine, but two of the pics of the Tingate ones are from another SR owners from here in the ACT. One drum brake pic is of Ben's front drum from Deus.
You'll note that my Tingate rearsets have been modified by me to take a rear brake cable as Rod only built them for the rear disc model.
Hope these pics give you some ideas...
SR
Rearsets:
Black cafe racer - modified Tingates...
Rear drum cable attachment...
Rear drum (TX750) and cable attachment...fabricated mount welded into backing plate...
Standard Tingates for disc brake application...Mark's SR500...standard kickstart bent to clear pegs...
Home made left...shortened SR brake lever...standard kickstart doesn't need bending with these and folding pegs...
Home made right...
Home made...reversed shift pattern...tricky if you're not used to it...
Home made right...shortened SR brake lever...
DCM left side...
DCM right side...Yam TR2/3 - TD3 rear drum...
Drum brakes:
Suzy 750 (GT750J) 4 LS front drum...
Left side of black cafe racer...note 38 tooth rear sprocket allowed by TX750 rear hub (you could even go smaller if required)...this also has a 525 chain...
Ben's TR/TD/TZ front drum...
Similar one on my Honda...
Rear drum from Yam TD2...not suited to SR as is, but the mirror image TR hub as fitted to the DCM (above) is...if you had one of these you could try to find a bare TR backing plate and transfer the moving parts over...
