Ewww. Front brake on wet roads is not a good combination. It's the one thing I don't like about the
Guzzi braking system. Sometimes I wish the rear brake pedal operated *only* the rear brake.

Mine are independent of each other. I’ve heard of many people separating the brakes on other models which were had front and back tied together


You know, until your comment I didn't realize the newer Guzzis had done away with the integral
braking system. I wonder if it was due to wet roads and the front tire locking.



Sounds like it was a good idea to dump that system. I'd think it could
be dangerous under certain conditions.
