The issue
On certian CB750F, GL1000 and GL1000LTD, when the rear disc brake is applied during vehicle operation in heavy rain, there may be a noticeable initial reduction in braking effectiveness followed by a gradual recovery to normal effectiveness if the pedal force is not increased to compensate for reduced initial effectiveness, a longer stopping distance will result. If the pedal force is first increased the maintained, despite the recovery of the brake, available tire traction may be exceeded resulting in skidding of the rear wheel and possible loss of vehicle control.
