I hardly ever use my rear brake. I think town/city riders seem to us them more for some reason. I tend to just use my gears and front brakes.
Not sure if it's the right thing to do or not, but, I got into that habit years ago when riding older machines that had drum brakes front and rear, the front on my BSA RGS was twin leading shoe and they did something the rear was single leading shoe and did absolutely nothing.
The front twin discs on the FZS 600 are fantastic, the rear is a bit lethargic and if you get over enthusiastic with it the rear locks up, so I tend to not use it unless it's an emergency situation.
