I don't think braking is all that important (as in over-thinking) if you are a responsible driver, as long as you know the front brake do most of the work, one would realise how it all works out.

Everybody say it's bad to brake in a corner, yes, but on the street at moderate speed when the tires has alot of potential grip un-harvested, a little bit of rear brake won't send you of course and won't slide you out. I do that everyday and I have yet to die front it. We're not all on track and draggin knees everywhere.

I guess I'm just a little pissed that everybody puts too much emphasis on that topic and get on their high-horse "race-track" techniques, when obviously alot of people here are just riding along town. As long as you do everything smoothly, thottle, brakes, turns anyone should feel the limit of the bike.
