But really compared to some other bikes the brakes are not bad.

I am glad to see CSC once again not only listening to their customers but doing something about it as well

I agree; I think the front brakes work fine. One might remember, the first generation of the Kawasaki KLR650 was noted for having very poor brakes. Also, if you are riding off road, you don't want the front brakes to grab too hard, or you will be going down quickly.

If you have any problems with the front brake, you can quickly rectify them. First, you should loosen all the brake rotor bolts, then tighten them incrementally, in a star pattern. If the front brake is pulsing, CSC will send you a new brake rotor under warranty coverage. Also, you can install sintered brake pads. CSC is now offering DP sintered brake pads. You can also install EBC FA185 brake pads.
