Bensport Rear Brakes.

As the present oil drain seems rather small for the thick oil and placed rather high, we have suggested on N. Sch. 3785 that one could be made of a brass casting attached to the periphery of the brake carrier which would be of adequate size, and also would completely drain the interior of the carrier.
