[QUOTE="Knifemaker, post: 1397882, member: 1075"] Well, it takes all kinds. I've even met someone who doesn't like fuel injectors and believes carburetors are better..... The Princess and the Pea comparison seems dead on. Unless someone told me (or I read it somwhere) I'd never have even guessed that the brakes were linked, and I very much believe that if the OP never found out he'd also not be able to tell. I've been on a lot of motorcycles in my life, and the brakes on my 2006 FJR were in my opinion stellar. I luckily never had to test out the ABS, but the fact they were on the bike was a major selling point to me...(other than looks, that great motor, and this forum) But, in an old school mind set I can understand someone thinking that linked brakes on a motorcycle are "not right"...but let's also toss in cast wheels instead of spoked, the aforementioned carburetors over EFI, ABS, and rev limiters.
