The stars are almost out of my eyes and I noticed the sidecar pulls significantly to the right on my new rig when applying the brakes ( Rear and sidecar brake). Do people put a proportioning valve in this line to even up the braking forces on these discs?

Also I didn't get a MOMA so was wondering what octane to run in the 2001 Roadking

Too much side car brake if it's pulling to the right. The right side is the slave side right? With no adequate sideccar braking the rig will go to the left. As with acceleration when the rig goes to the right the rig will go to the left under braking without a proportoning valve or a push to the left.
It's called physics my friend.
Harleys like 90 octane, better if you are in canada.

Thanks, Guess I will order up a valve. Mechanical drums were easy to adjust . Another +++ for the humble Ural.
