Sweet a true crusier for the scooter world. I don't like the combined brakes idea though.

I like the idea of shiftless/clutchless cruiser motorcycles. Not on my CBRs though.

A problem I discovered with linked braking happened in a right hand turn with a little bit of gravel in the corner. Since you never want to use much if any front brake in a turn especially if there is a slippery surface there is an instance where you (surprize to me)don't have a choice with the linked braking system on the BR. I was headed in a slow right turn where there was loose gravel and judicially applied my left (I thought rear) brake and surprize I was headed sideways as the linked braking applies some front brake and you have absolutely no way to opt out of it. Just be aware it is built into the system. I recovered in time and am now aware of the potential hazard. A word to the wise  |

Yeah, Teds, I figured that would be something to keep in mind. Ha, ha, I was riding my bicycle the other day (fist time in a while) and I needed to stop, and couldn't remember which break was which (since it's opposite the Ruckus') Ah, I nearly killed myself, but it was hilarious.  |

Why would anyone want combined brakes? Seems more dangerous to me. I almost always only use the front.

I would think that an integrated front and back and a free back would be good... but integrated back and front and a free front, that just sounds like an accident waiting too happen...
