    Those wheels and drum brakes look very similar to the ones on my 1974 Ducati 350 Desmo cafe racer. By todays standards those brakes were awful when pushed hard with a lot of fade.
    Those brakes were magnesium Fontanas. There were several other lookalikes but none up to the same standard. Properly ground drum with the linings turned to fit with Ferodo green linings and fade was not much trouble except in long races on busy tracks.
