front brake lockup

[beckertb]

Just an interesting photo. I ran a hayabusa with some bolt ons this last weekend from 70-190. Had to hit the brakes sharply for just a second. I felt the fronts lock, so I pedaled it. So much for the tires. I have Tom's 40 mm rear calipers and the Brembo GT brakes up front. Thanks to Bernie @ BJ's for getting me back up and going quickly.

And, unfortunately, at the end of the run, I was a bike length behind (but gaining quickly).

Wow, locked up for a second or two more and that would have gotten nasty.
