True, but I ran the stock rubber lines on all the sportbikes I have owned, and not one of them felt weak. The brakes on a sportbike are meant to slow you down from high speed, very quickly. It is the overall package, not just the hoses that contribute to feel and performance. The M50 is a bargain cruiser with nice features, but not so much as to push it to the 1100cc price range. The brakes are adequate, and do the job. To get better you are going to have to shell out some money - and have a professional do the work.
Not debating that, your rite. This thread is how we can improve them, there never gonna stop like dual discs or a sport bike. Sport bike is almost half the wieght with twice the brake. Hey it rhymes.
