Can't fit rear brake in drum after fitting news brake shoes
McCabe-Thiele (Ted):
I'd check the part number of those supplied against the manual.

Here is the part number of the Vesrah brake shoes: VB128S
And here is a picture where I have overlaid the new brake shoe on the old one. You can clearly see that the Vesrah shoe is quite a bit longer. No wonder it didn't fit into the drum.
Bryanj:
You bought 750 ones which are bigger than 500/550 the middle part number should be 323 not 300

Really? I know this might be misleading, but even on the packaging it says it should fit my bike?

Just a thought Alex, is your rear wheel hub original or correct for your bike?
