Does anyone have a picture or diagram of where the springs go in the drum handbrake on the tourer? on mine a spring seems to be fouling the adjuster, so i'm not sure it has been put together correctly.
 
Have photo's of my handbrake mechanism, but not sure how to post these here.
PM me an email address and I will send them to you
 
There are a fair few threads on pic posting. It's easier than you think. :D

Thank you all so much for the help, your pictures have confirmed all is in the right place, and the sticking brake was the pad, and not the handbrake mechanism at all, although that did need a bit of adjustment. I found some excellent advice on here about really cleaning up the carrier where the pad sits, and after doing that it all works as it should.
 
I think that sounds like a very good idea, I will add that to my maintenance schedule. I had already found that other post, had it printed out beside me while putting it all back together! Once again, fantastic help from this forum, so glad i found you all.
