Honda also uses a C-ABS (Combined-ABS) that is similar to BMWs. It's linked and the rear brake is involved.

I believe like the BMWs, it is only combined with the front lever is used. The rear pedal only operates the rear brake.

The other day we were talking about how much of a waste it is to put ABS on a Harley. After all, the majority don't use their front brake.
I use both, but in the twisty bits, I use the rear to scrub off speed if too hot in the corner. It reacts the bike much better than the front.

HD has rear abs that works just the same as the front.

No HD ABS is linked. Front & rear is completely independent.

Uh... I'm pretty sure ABS on the F/G650 and F800 effects both front and rear, as there is an abs sensor on the rear...

(not on mine... it's non ABS)

The HD system has a ABS sensor on the front & rear.

And so does a ton of bikes including the one on the r1200gs. Heck, people had to go through the abs sensor hole to fill the final drive until 2008.
