Here's a link of some pics of Super C breaks torn down. Try tightening the adjusting nut like the other guy said. If that don't work, you'll probably have to replace the brake disks. About $20.00 a piece, 2 for each side.

Bama,
What ever you do, do not use any kind of lubricant inside the brake drum. The actuator disk has the large balls (4 of them) inside of it which ride in a oblong cavity. They must be free of rust and any other debris that may inhibit brake action. The two halves of the actuator are held together with two pretty stiff short springs. Check these for condition as well as the brake return spring that fits over the adjustment bolt inside of the drum. Good luck with her and happy braking.:<)

I assume you have disc brakes. I had this problem on my SM when I bought it, I just adjusted them up to about 1 1/2" travel.. Later I took them apart and found they where worn down, so I bought new discs pads{lack of a better word} and brake cam plate ball bearings{mine where very pitted and rusted}. Took a heavy wire wheel to the contact disc to clean'em up, and WHAMO, she stops great now ;0) You might half to fine tune each side to get an even stop, if you dont you'll notice a brake pull to one side or the other as they wont apply perfectly equal on both sides the first time you adjust them.
