Default going 70 with no back breaks

i was out riding for about 30 minutes in the road and i decided to go for one more run down. my road has 2 90* curves. so anyways im going down, its fine i get to the end, turn around, and im heading back comin at the first 90. im in 5th gear with the throttle pinned and i pull in the clutch gettin ready to slowdowwn for the curve, i try to hit the rear brakes and for somereaosn, i didnt feel the lever, i look, and the brake lever is down ike 4 inches haning there. so i had to cram on the front brakes and lock em up and alsmot flew in a ditch going about 30. i get back the the house and look, and the little screw that connects the levr to the brakes is gone[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-shocked.gif[/img]
so moral of the story, makes sure everything is bolted on tight before you go riding[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-wink.gif[/img]

I rarely use my back brakes on my rappy, the fronts work sooo much better, but not while turning.
