hey guys
had a blowout on rear tire, lots of excitement of course. pulled the tire off in haste and when re-assembled had a mystery washer  laying in the right hand pile or parts - not sure if it belongs on the bike or maybe found its way into the pile by accident - anybody have an idea where it goes (if it does at all?) - its the smaller washer under the nut on the right hand side - i know the big washer belongs - what about this guy??

thx!
mike

I've a Breganzie 750 SF for something like 45 years and one thing you have to make sure is that rear chain carrier hub is locked or you're Waltzing Matilda.

Chain adjustment is another matter.

As far as washers go, I still have the originals, but don't give away to something that works.
 
Elephant stamp for you Ron  ;)

Think you will find all 750 owners can also do dis  :P

Looks like Mike has that hub spacer on the right, in place Mooreece 
 
Thanks Hookskey: I was just trying to explain the importance of the hub carrier slide,  in consideration of the proper washers used.

You don't to Waltz with Matilda.
 
More of a toe tapping song is Waltzing Matilda  :D

Must of had a few that night Pat  :o

You up for a squirt tmorra ?? maybe take the girls for a coupla cardees out the YV.
Welcome to pik up the 750 and head out from Nuna, watcha reckon ??
 
Sounds good. Always up for a squirt.Thanks for the SF offer but no gear for Yvonne. :(

So as not to get off topic, if you were wondering who cleaned my bike last, well, she was the mystery wheel washer!
 
Sand blasted the rusty chrome (Bead the Chrome) and painted it with 3M Epoxy Chromite Under  Coat then sprayed a can or 2  of Acrylic Enamel over it.

Very durable - Better than that stupid chrome.
 
Iron spoked Breganzie Barronni Titanium Rims are a pain to maintain - Let you want and can afford Nicole Kidman.
                                   
I just settle for a native Brunet: Both are dangerous.

That big NUT on the swing arm of a Breganzie, that I showed you, has to be locked or you're Waltzing Matilda.

Guess:Hooksey Dance = Waltzing Matilda.

Whatever washers you choose to use, I prefer soft stainless steel concerning the rear hub carrier and axle.

After a few chain adjustments over the years - Replace the washers and the chain so you can determine whether you're going to Boogie or Waltz on a Breganzie providing all else is up to shape on your Breganzie.

One thing I'm not fond about is at a Cafe Stop for the stink of fuel stand off, noise and dirt my open mouth VHB 30's Delloto's breath in with a crowd of people standing around where I just want to be on my way ;o)
