NO WHERE NEAR ENOUGH PRESSURE TO STOP THE MOTORCYCLE ON A STEEP INCLINE FROM A STOP. WHICH IS WHERE IT'S NEEDED MOST. FROM A STOP, ON A HILL I REPLY ON THE REAR BRAKE AND NOW I AM FORCED INTO A DANGEROUS SITUATION OF MODULATING THE FRONT BRAKES AND OPERATING THE THROTTLE TOGETHER WITH THE SAME HAND. THIS IS A KNOWN ISSUE AMOUNG ALL OWNERS OF THIS MODEL AS A QUICK INTERNET SEARCH WILL PROVE. PLEASE HELP US!!
