Thank you Jerry,

I will give that a good thinking about and build up to that in a few days!!!

I was quite pleased with my Flap Wheel that I bought from Scewfix - trouble is it will not fit in the gap between the hub brake lining and the center of the hub - I'm sure it will come in handy in the future!

Undetered I decided to use a pair of those  dark green plastic wheels that Ken uses for polishing work. A steady five minutes with them in my Dremell,  the brake liner cleaned up really nicely. Hub fitted back in the wheel,  nipped up,  a couple of high point rub marks on the brake lining near the middle towards the edge of one brake shoe. Hub removed some sand paper on the high points, Repeated twice - all is now as it should be - wheel rotates freely at last!

I've lost count of how many times the back wheel has been removed and re-fitted over the last two days - it was worth perservering to get it right.
Thanks for the tips from those who replied to this post.

Thank goodness for my bike ramp it made it all so much easier - time for a Beer reward!

I have just used Ashford Chroming located in Crayford S.E. London after my chromer who I have used for 30+ years lost his environmenal licence (unless he was willing to pay thousands for new treatment tanks). Ashford Chroming were absolutely brilliant. The quality of their work is beyond excellent as are their timescales, I got all my stuff back within a month.
They are however expensive but you get what you pay for with chrome. They didn't like the repair on my rear mudguard, didn't think I'd smoothed it down enough (I'd spent hours on it!) so they tweaked it in their in-house panel beating shop.

isn't it caused by weakened magnets.  All my old gauges do this, especially on my Land Rover.

As I approach 20mph and onto 30mph my speedo starts wagging within about a 5mph field, enough to cost a lot of money in London today. What might be wrong, is this something Gauge Restorers could fix?
