    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.

    The Canadian F6Bs have ABS?

    not sure if everyone comes with it but you can definitely get ABS on the Canadian model.
