rear brake plate

Forums

I bought a rear brake plate for my Norton 650ss - advertised as Dommie plate but the brake shoe pivots have wire circlips instead of retaining plate/tab washer and bolts.

I assume it's an earlier plate from ES2 or very early twin.

Does anyone have any knowledge/experience of these plates, please?

Thanks

The plate linking the two brake shoe mounting pins was added...post WW2 I believe.  So your brake plate is earlier than 650SS.  Shoes and sizes are the same.  I don't know about other details.

Thanks David - yes, I think shoe sizes are same to right back when. 

This also has a fixing for separate torque stay so for a different swinging arm.
