The RC has plenty of stopping power out the rear stock, especially being a big cc twin (but you already know that). I wanted better stopping power out front with better feel.

Me too....but the rear brake is actually usable right now. With the brembo, I'm sure easy locking would ensue.

But I understand what you're saying and I agree. I need to start using the rear brake, especially in some of the mountains around me, but I don't need it locking the rear.
