Your confidence in your front will grow an come in time, they really do plant themselves hard, (all about physics and rolling resistance versus gyroscopes) I'm sure by now you've seen stoppies and the like, if the traction wasn't there then they would be almost impossible to do,
Front brake then gentle on the rear once transfer has occured otherwise like me you will be on to hard and lock up as the front digs in,
As already said above also good throttle control will see you around more bends than the brakes, both together correctly= harmony........... And remember ...... You never run out of road........ Just ability, the roads been there years and will carry on forever :-/
