Hannigan Parking Brake Photos

[Craigatcsi]

Duh! I feel foolish..

i glanced at at the pics of it mounted and thought you cut a big gash up the side. - It Is the black cable that I saw. LOL!

[Cougar]

LOL-- Yup just a black cable

Though about painting the cable the same color as the body,
I do have some left over paint from colorite I think it would stick.
Wait till I get the lever chromed this winter

If you have the running boards Hannigan mounts
them to the rear of them on the right side down low.
I believe they run the cable through the vent on that side.

Saturday morning I dropped my bike off for the conversion. I figured just go ahead and add the parking brake to the original build...

[Cougar]

All packed up to send out for CHROME PLATING !!!! *oops*

3 parts total. will flash some photos when it comes back to me.

I live in Iowa , so I told him to take his time and have it

back by the end of March if he could :-)

Thats super nice Cougar. What did the chrome job cost you?

[Carbon_One]

Looking good Jeff

[Cougar]

Minimum charge for chrome these days is $85 bucks.

I would have gladly paid the extra for a chrome handle

when I purchased the kit from Hannigan at the time *hint*

They did do all three parts though and the top of the bolts

witch I had no clue they were going to do that, I just said heck

with it and did it LOL .

This weekend I am going to Use Plastic Dip spray PEARLIZER

and make the black cable close to the color of the tike.

I just never seem to stop do I ?

What can I do next? maybe I can ride in a couple weeks

[Craigatcsi]

So the cables run outside the Fiberglass!!?

i am anxious to see the finished product.

[Cougar]

They don't if you don't want them to. I ran the cable to the opposite side
of the trike where I can see the parking brake handle when I walk up to
the trike. only about 6 inches is exposed.

You can see how much in this post.

Just received mine ( brake kit ) about 10 minutes ago. Not a frigging idea on how to install it and it came with absolutely zero instructions or photos. This should be interesting....lol

A 70 year old klutz rolling around under the trike trying to do a puzzle. What could possibly go wrong?

In Canada ( specifically Ontario ) you do not need to have a parking brake on "your" trike if it was built and registered without one. The problem arrises if you try to sell or trade it. In order to pass a mandatory safely check it must have a working parking brake seperate from the existing and primary brake system. The " holdability" of the brake is subject to testing. Dealers don't want trikes if they have no parking brake and any potential customer who wants the bike safetied for vehicle registration purposes is going to insist on it. Trike is useless to them otherwise.

I checked with the Ministry of Transport Ontario office and no, there is no such thing as "grandfathered because built before legislation was passed". Apparently Newfoundland was the last province to require a parking brake but it is now coast to coast.
