I was a bit dubious of the front drum brake as well but I never ran into

speed to brake. The drum brake seems entirely adequate.

Strangely, we got this bike in the UK (or something very similar - we
call it the CB250) and it has a disc front brake.

But then, everyone knows we ride harder here....

You have to stop harder and more often because those other putzes
around you are DRIVING ON THE WRONG SIDE OF THE ROAD!!!! (Phew!
That was close!)
