I have done as "Crenwelge" suggested and have "mastered" the fine touch as best as I can. Moderate speeds on dry pavement is fine. If I had to do an emergency stop she will break loose. I guess that even though I am a "senior citizen" and have driven with all drum brakes for ever, I have become accustomed to the disc and ABS. Even one of my motorcycles (1800 Honda Goldwing) has ABS.
Thanks for the replies.
