Dear fellow listers: I've run across a rather strange and perplexing problem on my Tiger. It is pulling rather significantly to the right under braking. The entire braking system, and I do mean the E

Since you are desperately seeking a solution, I'll suggest a long shot. It is easy to install the rear shoes with the leading edge and trailing edge shoes switched. Especially if you look at the pic

The question is do you believe one side is grabbing more than it should or one side is not grabbing as it should? I had a similar experience once over a vintage race weekend in my Tiger: I had a coo
