Re: ABS with Combined Braking System (CBS) on Forza

I was always taught to always use both brakes...
It makes sense actually, you shouldnt need to be balancing the bike on a rear brake or trail braking on the road anyway.
If you are hard pulling one brake without the other, you are probably going outside the design remit of the braking system, afterall it is a system designed for road (as opposed to track).
I get what the OP is saying, but dont think it is something you should encounter without missusing the braking system.
So if you need to go hard on the brakes mid corner, you would still be using both front and rear levers and trying not to lock the tyres (whether or not you have ABS)
Standing on the brakes mid corner is not going to be easy even with cornering ABS, so applying the 'I can stop in the distance I can see' (according to your expertise) is what is required.
I have gone around too many a corner to find something weird going on that I wouldnt want to risk this rule.
