| Rear wheel off for a new tyre. Loosened all the bolts, went to get my storage tin so I don't loose any, came back and one of the parking brake bolts has gone. Down the same wormhole as the one that took the fairing screw last week I expect. Poor little green martian is now going to be wondering where that bolt belongs on his spaceship!!! |

| If your wondering what I'm rambling on about see my seat catch post. It's enough to drive a man to drink. Or more specifically another drink :-) |

| FWIW There are two lenghts of bolts on that caliper assembly; 8 x 35 mounts the caliper to the swing arm, and 8 x 42 attaches the caliper to the backing plate. Maybe you can find a similar size 8 mm bolt locally. Can you say Loctite? |
