Bob,
Enjoyed your video!  Just another ride to work, eh ;O).  It's
gratifying to see you back on the bike.  A friend of mine had a
deer-encounter in '01 and suffered the loss of his left leg.  He's
currently riding a sidecar-equipped Guzzi but is trying to get back on
two wheels.

As to your comment about having no rear brake control.  You may have
already considered and rejected this idea but a number of racers use a
thumb operated rear brake:

Rick and all other who responded, thanks a bunch, and yes that was me
following the R1 in that video, (note the sound of my triple and the
dashboard of the ST (cigar cam mounted on the brake fluid reservoir.

BTW, I like this one.
