Need some advice. I came from a cruiser with a large wide rear drum brake to the MT07 with disc. I find the brakes to be unusual, in that some times it feels good and other times it feels weak. I am by nature a rear brake rider most notability when coming to a stop at lights etc, I like to bilp the throttle on down shifts to reduce the severity of the engine braking when coming down the gears so I tend to use the rear more. I have played around with lever height and such to see if its the set up or me and the brake, My question is in comparison with other bike how do you see the rear brake, is it crap or good and what can I do to get consistency in my braking. Or is as I am becoming a better rider and getting used to the bike I am fining its limitations, I rode as a young man up until my mid 20s on sports bike and only got back onto bikes in my late 40s riding cruisers.Your thoughts Gents
