RM 250/400 C/N/T Front Brake Plate

[BAHNZY]

Before i worked out how easy it is to repair a broken brake cable attachment lug on a backing plate, i discarded the broken one (accidently) from my 400N and replaced it with one from a PE. I now have a backing plate with a speedo drive and it looks pox. I understand that the backing plate is common for the C, N, & T models (with the exception of the 125) If anyone has one spare that they are looking too offload please let me know.

Gunna fire this one up again. Looking for a RM 250/400 N/T front brake backing plate. Does not matter if the cable outer boss is broken.
I have the PE unit with a speedo drive fitted at the moment to a RM and just does not look right.

He should have 150mm  front brake shoes       front hub on Rm is magnesium  where as Pe is ali .

Have the bike back at home now, will strip the front wheel out and check the measurements.
What i do know is the front wheel was originally from a 1978 PE250.
I was under the impression that the brake shoes were common between the PE250C, RM250C and the RM 250/400 N&T. The info from Leith seems to support this.
