Barn Find
Well, found a couple great parts to repurpose.
Will clean up then rebuild.
Prep for use on something. Hmmmm

Whose barn have you been snooping in? All of the old barns around here have Girling calipers laying around....

I gotta get out to your area Jim.
Need some rears.

I have a pair of repos rears coming from England. They were suppose to be here last Friday. Tracking says they have gone off course and are now sitting in customs in Poland. Last set took less than a week to get here.

Anyone have a source for the herringbone rubber hose?

The herringbone rubber hose is a cool item. Guess I'll need to look around the barn again for some NOS lines...

Looks like the Herringbone lines are Girling.
There are an assortment online but most way short. Finding 9-12" however the ones on the Calipers (Cobra) are longer.

I asked because herringbone was used on Vincent motorcycles, maybe other brands too, for the fuel and oil lines. I used to be able to buy it by the foot, in 2 different diameters, but it seems it is no longer being produced.

These are most likely too old to use.
I’d like a new set too
