Hi Joe

Welcome aboard.
Most of us have had an off or drop that we'd love to undo.
Some more than others Wink

I think the trick is to learn from others mistakes and not make any yourself....or at least limit them to little mistakes.

A case of do as I say and not as I do here I think.

Enjoy the new steed and ride safe.

Cheers

Hello and welcome!

I believe the recommendation is to use 70/30 front & back brakes in the wet/slippery conditions.

I wouldn't dismiss it, as it can help you a hell of a lot mid-corner where you don't want to be touching the front Smile

Enjoy!

I couldn't make it work on phone. There is a guide on how to post pictures in the pinned posts at the top of the lounge.
