Re: [ST] Rear Brake

["Cameron McKay" <camckay@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hey David,
I just got the latest issue of MotorCyclist and there's an article about
Tony Gobert. Read it and then tell me I'm wrong.  One of the best riders in
the entire world couldn't be wrong, could he?  Well I guess if you get your
info from BordersNobleStarbucksRodeoDrive places you must be right.  After
all, if you over pay for things it must be right, right?
Read it David and let me know again how wrong I am.
