rear brake
whilst out training cbt's this morning i started thinking about the rear brake

i teach new riders to use 80-20 front to rear brake and 50/50 in the wet,i understand the reasons behing it for training especially on slow speed riding and figure of 8's. yet when i ride on the roads myself i never use the back brake at all, even at the silly speeds i ride at

so i was wondering how regularly do you guys use the rear brake and why, what benefits does it have on the road and does your rear brake feel as useless as the one on my 748 ??
