Re: Horn at idle
Thank you for your comments. What I failed to add is that the reading on the voltmeter whilst on idle does not exceed 12v at 800rpm. I am using the harness of the motorcycle and the horn is on a relay. What voltage reading do you get on idling?

Wishbone bushes
Whilst cleaning my front suspension I noticed that the front wishbone bushes are torn and hence the castor angle is not correct and suspension is not operating as it should.

Reverse gearbox breeder nipple
Good morning, I am presently replacing my oils and wish to ask whether the Nova Reverse gearbox needs to have a catch tank. In my installation I had fitted a pipe from the gearbox nipple going to the rear bulkhead. I noticed a small quantity of oil. Is this correct or should I leave the nipple free ...

Re: Tension spring on parking brake rear caliper
Thank you very much for your reply the contents of which have been noted. I am glad that the external parking brake I installed has worked with no problem with the existing spring. So I do not need any modifications

Tension spring on parking brake rear caliper
Hope everyone is looking forward to the Triking season. I am presently working on a modification to my parking brake and would like to ask whether it is possible to reduce the tension of the parking brake spring and / or suggest an alternative. Thank you in advance

I have noted the above contributions but frankly I do not know what I can do since brake unit on my car is new unless I can adjust handbrake cable. It is worth mentioning that I can move the car easily when engine is off and pushing it in and out of garage
