BRAKES.

As the front brake mechanism did not return quick enough to "zero" position, we reduced by about 2/3rds the loading on the Armstrong hydraulic damper, we now think that the loading is too low and will probably have to be increased.

Controls (as attached to the frame near the o/s of the engine) rattle, due to end play, receiving attention.

Cured petrol leaks from filler cap.

VA.
