*That* is a feckin horrible thing. Evo brakes on a Beemer are (alone) enough

Bikes absolutely do not need brake assist. How can the added complexity and
potential for failure (not to mention added weight) be justified when there are
unassisted brakes capable of doing a two-finger stoppie?

VN750 Third gear has scope.

ZN1300 maybe- it would be nice to dispense with the speaking tube for
communicating with the engine room as well.
