    I took an advanced course with my Canuck 2016. (ABS). Experimenting with front lever only/rear pedal only and both, I managed to get her stopped within the same 1-2 feet from 50 kph (30mph). That was using maximum force and letting ABS do the rest. The linked brakes using the combo of front/rear callipers depending on the lever/pedal usage do almost as good a job as mashing both and getting all callipers. I still trail brake when riding twisties. The ABS on the F6B, unlike the BMW 1600B does not care about lean angle.
