My experience with 2nd Gen brakes was sure interesting. I still haven't figured out what happened. The rear was sliding which doesn't scare me that much. Hang on and ride it out. Which I did very well as the skid marks show. What happened?? I don't know and can't remember. That from getting a thump on the head hard enough to cause bleeding on the brain again I guess. The bike according to Adrain stood up on the front wheel and threw me into the air above it. Did I at the last see that I was not going to stop and grab a handfull of front?? I don't know.
