[QUOTE="Redfish Hunter, post: 1397494, member: 28773"] Linked brakes are EVIL! Linked brakes are NOT SAFE! Linked brakes are just one more reason why the FJR is inferior to (insert YOUR favorite brand here). I don't know that I have ever felt the threshold where the proportioning valve allowed pressure to actuate the front pistons from the rear brake. EVERY time I used that much force on the rear brake I was already squeezing the front. Normal low speed maneuvering that requires the rear brake does not actuate anything on the front. This is a complete non issue. There is nothing to interfere with anything anyone might do with the FJR, no matter how skilled or wonderful the rider may think he/she is. This whole thread has been an exercise in WTF??? [/QUOTE]
