Well, I learned one thing today about adding a stock floorboard set-up
to a civilian bike. I thought I had everything I needed to convert my
'70 Ambo but when I tried to put the arm from the new brake linkage my
on original brake shaft, the hole in the arm was too small to fit over
the splines on the shaft.
There are 2 possibilities: 1) the police bikes use a different brake
shaft with a smaller diameter splined end, 2) the guy sent me the wrong
arm ( which I doubt since he pulled the parts right off a '74 police
Eldo.)
Can any of the experts help confirm which scenario would be correct so I
can get this project done?
Thanks,
Donny

Hi, I have searched the archives and am having a tough time deciphering the various types and required parts additions to floorboards. I really want floorboards on my Eldo. So far, it appears to me there are three styles; DB, AAA, stock. Can anyone sort out for me what has to be included with each for it to be operational (linkages, mounts, levers, etc)? I would greatly appreciate it. Also, which ones have the long, "surfboard" style design? I assume the DB's, as the AAA's are clearly marked and the stockers seem to have a distinctive mount. Thanks for indulging my revisiting these much discussed topics. Ray |
