Well I read about it and it finally happened to me that the rear lamp mountings failed, only bit on an Adventurer not over engineered. Simple cure is with two gommets and some steel tube with suitable length fasteners. Drill out the rear lamp on the two outer mounts to accept the grommet, tight fit is good, cut two lengths of metal tubes, mine were brass but steel will do so they are about 30thou less than the depth of the grommet and insert. Drill out the lamp mount backet to 6.5mm, install fixings 6mm dia with washers either side of the grommet and bolt up.
If this sounds confusing look at the way (dare i say it) the japs shock mount stuff, ie clocks etc and the idea is easy to copy. Had no trouble since and no blown filaments due to vibes.
