[QUOTE="user 86528, post: 1221189, member: 86528"] I tend to 'drag' my rear brake through the bends. Last year on a couple of occasions on particularly windy Italian mountain roads, I completely lost my rear brake due to brake fade. I had changed the fluid just before the trip. Thing is, I never had it happen on the same roads in previous years on a heavy Burgman scooter doing the same speeds. The FJR was pretty loaded down with side cases, top box, tail pack, tank bag and fat bastard (me) on it but still, I though the brakes should have coped. Perhaps the Burgman has better rear brakes!!!
