John it's funny you mention the mitt string thing. My girl stopped by last night and was whining about loosing her expensive leather gloves. I told her that if she had put them on a string thru her coat like we did when she was a kid lost gloves would be a non issue. Good dig about the clutch cable I'm still in your debt for helping me out. You rode behind me that day after my mechanical failure and I'm sure you noticed that I can still navigate quite well without using my clutch.
