I understand, and I agree wholeheartedly with your illustration of becoming familiar the operation of our personal equipment, Elipten. And I sincerely APPRECIATE any and ALL input, suggestions or cautionary elements anyone is willing to share - so Thank You.

And even after having ridden my CB1100 400 miles I am still learning about the bike and it's characteristics. I was aware of the front brakes being both strong and extremely sensitive, and believe me, I've made every attempt to adapt my braking habits. Honestly, the bike's behavior in this instance took me completely by surprise - I was, however glad I didn't panic or overreact causing some real harm. But I have to say in all candidness, those front brakes are the most difficult I've ever encountered...

Above it all... I will continue to learn and adapt as well, and as quickly as I'm able.

Thanks again for all your input!
