Thanks Farjo. Actually no, no breaks. Except for the collar bone when racing a JAP 500cc Hagon grasstracker on the beach at Redcar in the late 60's. I (mis)spent my years at Liverpool Uni learning how to ride and race motorbikes (sand racing) instead of studying....got a pass degree tho'. My kids all love me for it....no problem beating Dad's pass level degree. I'll do as you suggest. BTW I fitted a Maxton rear shock in 2010 and it is a delight. The bike is so much steadier and precise in the bendy bits.
