I'm looking for some feedback... I bought a used '14 ST (without ABS) back in May and have noticed the front brakes are very touchy, especially at low speeds. Now I don't have much to compare to. I went from a '81 CB750C to the CB1100 and have only been riding for a few years, but it seems a little excessive. I really had to get on my 750 to stop quickly, which is my only real comparison. Is this normal for this bike? Is there a way to adjust this? I just gave my brother my '81 (hoping to hook him on riding too), so not going back and forth will help me get used to it as well. I'm more curious than anything. - Thanks
