Back brakes

Has anyone fitted a servo to there trike to sharpen up the brakes. I have a 96 BossHoss the brakes are rubbish. I have fitted larger rear calipers which has helped but want better. There’s no room for a longer pedal and I’m running a 3/4 master cylinder. Thought I’d try a servo but wanted to hear other people’s experience.

thanks

Hi Paul,

I replied on the other thread also. Yes, some have added a power booster (servo). Not sure what they used. You can probably find that info on the V8 Bike Riders forums.

Thanks for the info. I should have said I have discs on the back. I took the shitty tiny brembo calipers off. Made up some mounts and fitted a pair of Renault 5 turbo front calipers. I’ve also made mounts and replaced the willwood twin pots for Brembo 4 pots as well as fully floating discs. I do have a remote servo somewhere. I’ll try it and let you know.

thanks again
