Hi Guys
I know, its me again. I was thinking about things in general inregards to
the brakes and weights in relation to the cruiser.
Correct me if im wrong or just insane but it has been said that you can pull
a 3 ton trailer with the cruiser, is that if the trailer has its own brakes
or will the cruisers surfice to stop the whole thing. If this is the case
why do we talk about stopping the cruiser with better braking power if it
can stop a trailer and itself. I read somewhere that the max load that can
be put on the roof is 200 kg after that you may be left holding the load on
your lap. If that is the case and you can load the boot with stuff, I dont
know what weight you can carry in the boot so if any one knows please tell
me, what is the max loading , boot/trailer/roof and people that the cruiser
can stop with using the standard brake system. I think if it can do all this
why o why upgrade the brakes at all.
If there is a weight limit for the boot is this because of the suspension
and nothing else or are there other thinks involved. Because if this is the
case then all one has to do is upgrade the suspension and viola you can
carry more, I have to be wrong dont I, come on tell me I have had my med so
ill be Ok. The point im trying to find out is if the weight in the boot
drags the back down and the brake adjuster on the rear axle adjusts to
compensate then if the suspension didn't allow the back to drag or drop
sorry guys, them this would be good YES.
Does the load on/in the cruiser have more of an effect on the brakes because
of the imbalance in the level of the cruiser or does it not make a
difference at all, maybe it all comes down to the weight and thats that.
Hope this makes sense its just me head is filling up again with questions,
makes a change fromit being up there dah.
