Re: Longshot B25 / TR25 Starfire / Trophy frame forks ??

Guy I know has just restored a 250 trophy. Very pretty, probably very slow. He also has a BSA Gold Star in for repair. Not the classic the 70’s steer scrambler. Very purple.

Brake squealing

My front brakes squeal like a stuck pig. Tried copper slip to no avail pads are old but have life left. Maybe a change of pads to new ones would fix. Any thoughts?
