Moist home-made ABS advert
« on: October 05, 2015, 04:49:07 PM »
Watch out for the white painted stripes on the road, and take it easy on the front brakes if you don't have ABS.
Lucky Honda scooter rider here (some blamed this on Honda's 'combined brakes'....like Honda has never seen rain before. Nope, he saw those brake lights & grabbed too much R hand. No ABS on these PCX Hondas -- yet.):




And that star again this morning....(saw a Coyote along the way. Yep, they're in Ohio now....and no, he took off before I could stop and get the camera out of the glove box)

Due to the linked brakes on the PCX, you're going to get some front brake whether you grab that right lever or not.  That is why I don't like linked brakes.  If it's slippery I use more rear brake and less front.  If it's real slippery like snow or ice I use rear brake only.  Of course with ABS the problem mostly goes away.
