vw trike: braking issues.....
helllo family trikers. my legs r givin me problems from bad hip to post polio ect....so i am n the process of rigging up hand brakes for the rear brakes. i changed out the worn out rear drum brakes for disc.1. cause disc r maintenance free and 2. i didnt have a parking brake set up 3. wanting to set up to hand brake.....well i find out or i am told, that a mc master cylinder wont work on disc....so i have new foot brakes. i need info on some options of how and what i can use to finish out a hand brake set up...i havent found anything on google i can use that is cost worthy ect mayb using the park brake,(naw). i got good rear brakes but it is a super hard peddle and my leg isnt that reliable...if i had to make a panic stop it wouldnt pass...i am thinking of a hand operated master cylinder fed into the brake master cylinder to operate the rear brakes. Or even settin up a servo off the engine that too is run off the handle bars....left side handle bar where the clutch mc would b....right side is front brakes, clutch is left foot and throttle is right hand grip....i need some ideas and imput....thanks

There isn't a lot of info to be found on the subject. I finally got it all to work this past winter and just updated my previous post to Goldwing Docs to describe my process to help other disabled riders. You can read how I accomplished this at the link below.[/FONT][/FONT][FONT=inherit]Edit or delete this[/FONT][/FONT]
