Brake cable connection sf '71

I'd suggest you throw away the fitted brake shoes and source new ones.  The cable is probably just as ripe for the bin as well, it has been bodged with spacers and nuts to take up the excessive slack of worn brake shoes.

Once you start with usable equipement, you might even be able to adjust the brake into a functioning component!  The first series Laverda brakes are very simple to set up, but the parts do need to be in decent condition.

Thanks Piet, I'm going to new brake pads.
Remove various washers and only the two nuts are mounted.

The SF is a beautiful bike, but it is hard to bring back a bike that has undergone 40 years of not always appropriate interventions  >:(, when you do not know it except in photos. :D
