ST1100 Middleton handbrake
« on: March 08, 2012, 10:18:11 AM »
I was looking through my box of new bits for the ST1100, and found I still have a Middleton Handbrake brand new  http://www.st1100.org/farkles/handbrake.html
It fits on the front brake lever and works very well. Easy to put on (apply brake then flick lever up) and release (just use brake again).  Handy for those times when you want hands free but are not on flat ground.

It owes me $50 but open to offers.  Only fits ST1100 and I don't have an ST13 to hand to see how diffrent they are, but have heard that it might fit some other bikes with modification.

 I am looking for a Middleton Hand Brake -- I need one for my "new" '97 ST1100 ABS.  Do you still have the one for sale?  If so, I am very interested.

I moved my "Middleton Park Brake" from the 11 to the 13 and works great.  They definitely one of the best farkles to have, I think.

Slasher on the ST-Owners.com site says he has some for sale, link below:-

I got mine off Saaz.  Some people asked me "what is that" at Inverell.
At my age " getting lucky" is remembering what I came in the room for ;)
