Where in Bill Silver's Dream literature is the info on how to overhaul the brakes? I can't seem to find it and I'm not sure of the proper way to remove/replace the shoes.
Thanks in advance!

Had: '75 CB550 K, '79 CT90 BrakesFront and rear are different. It has been a while since I did it, but what I remember is gently prying the hinge apart and over/onto the retaining lip. Clean the back side of the cam and drive it through the backing plate while you pry the shoes up off of the backing plate. IIRC when the pressure is off the springs, the shoes can be twisted off the springs easily. Reassemble in reverse order. Probably not a Honda authorized method, but it worked pretty well.
