brake pedal feel (or action)

[bareback]

A reply by Mark S. (#15 on 3/24/'22) interested me. I test-drove a BB several weeks ago, and the feel of the brake pedal was great (very linear). A BB equipped to my liking arrived at my local dealer a week ago, so I jumped right on it. The feel of the brake pedal is very different ; very touchy or sensitive (over boosted).
Could it be that the one I tested had the Copilot 360+ option, with the electric booster, while mine doesn't have that option, and therefore has a vacuum booster ? My brake pedal reminds me of the '50's & '60's power brakes in which the slightest touch of the pedal sent you through the windshield !
Is it possible to adjust the boost of my BS's brakes ? It's not much fun to drive this way.

I would give it several hundred miles. The engine isn't the only thing on new vehicles that breaks in. Brakes, tires, suspension, seats, speakers, etc., all will behave differently after a bit of use.
