ABS

Well, I can confirm that this works. And I am ever so glad to be able to report on it.

There have been a few occasions when some astonishingly poor car/van driving has meant I needed to grab a BIG handful of brake. Well, that and one or two times I�ve been �making progress� a little too eagerly.

So, what�s it like?

Well, it�s a bit like braking on gravel in terms of the feedback through the lever/pedal. And it�s a very cultured but forceful slowing down in terms of what happens.

Oh, and the linked braking? Well, the fighter pilots and Fireblade owners might not like it but for those of us in the real world, it�s fantastic. It�s never intrusive but the effects are, well, reassuringly positive.
