my 61 Bug Scorpion has H-H hydraulic disk brakes which I believe date to the 60's. I researched them and discovered the company started making brakes for karts in the mid 50's. Kelsey Hayes bought them out in 68. The seals are the same as many Harley brakes, late 60's-80's. I have not run the kart yet but these brakes are nice.. look quality. More then likely they were refitted to the Scorpion in the 60's but wonder if the Bug dealers ever sold new karts with brake options.. they may date to 61.. they are marked HH, not Kelsey Hayes. anybody know anything about them..
